Job description

Pest Control Service Technician

Top pay. Industry‑leading training. A great team. A real career.

Do you enjoy working independently, staying active, and helping people solve real problems? Would you rather be out in the field than stuck behind a desk? If so, this could be a great fit.

At Greenhow, our pest control technicians work one‑on‑one with customers at their homes and businesses, diagnosing issues and providing effective, professional solutions. You'll work independently in your own service area-but with the full support of a skilled team, strong training program, and proven systems behind you.

What the job is like

As a Pest Control Service Technician, no two days are the same. Every property is different, and every customer challenge requires problem‑solving and good communication. We provide thorough training, quality equipment, and proven materials-you use your skills and judgement to deliver results our customers truly appreciate.

This is a hands‑on, active role. You'll work outdoors and occasionally in basements and attics. If you like variety, challenges, and being trusted to manage your own day, you'll feel right at home here.

What we offer

• Competitive pay starting at $50,000+ per year, with growth opportunities
• Paid training and full support to earn your Massachusetts pest control license
• Medical, dental, 401(k), paid holidays, and paid vacation
• Company‑provided vehicle, uniforms, tools, and supplies
• After your initial training and probationary period, you can take your company vehicle home-saving time at the start and end of your day
• A stable, essential industry where skilled technicians are always in demand

Who we’re looking for

You don't need pest control experience-we train the right person. You should:

• Have strong customer service experience (retail, food service, or other face‑to‑face roles are great backgrounds)
• Be comfortable talking with all types of customers
• Have a clean driving record
• Be dependable, self‑motivated, and open to feedback
• Take pride in your work and enjoy solving problems
