Coastal Wildlife & Pest Control Services | Jacksonville, FL
Read This Before You Apply
This is demanding, hands-on craftsmanship work — and that's exactly why the right people build strong careers here.
We are looking for skilled, detail-obsessed, highly accountable individuals who take pride in sealing a building right the first time, doing quality repair and exclusion work, and operating to a high standard on every job.
If you rush your work, cut corners to finish faster, or dislike difficult physical labor in tight spaces, this role will not be a fit.
If you are someone who:
- takes pride in precise, durable, high-quality work
- is good with your hands and enjoys building and repairing
- notices the small gaps and details others miss
- works methodically and gets it right the first time
- takes ownership without being asked
- and wants a clearly defined path to advancement
…keep reading.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
Most companies talk about "growth opportunities." We built a documented career path with clearly defined expectations, responsibilities, compensation, and advancement milestones.
You will always know:
- what is expected
- how performance is measured
- what skills you need to advance
- and exactly what your compensation path looks like
Career Path & Compensation
- Apprentice (0–6 months): $20/hour
- Wildlife Tech Level 1 (6–12 months): $21/hour + production commission + lead bonuses
- Wildlife Tech Level 2 (12–36 months): $22/hour + sales commission + increased lead bonuses
- Senior Technician: $23/hour + leadership incentives + annual performance bonus
- Team Lead: $25/hour + leadership bonus structure
- Service Manager: Salary position with full leadership compensation package
Advancement is based on performance, technical mastery, reliability, leadership, and accountability — not politics or tenure.
What You'll Actually Do
This is a physically demanding, detail-intensive role focused on sealing buildings and keeping wildlife out — permanently.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Inspecting homes and buildings to locate every wildlife entry point
- Diagnosing structural vulnerabilities and infestation causes
- Performing full-building exclusion: sealing gaps, screening vents, reinforcing rooflines and façades
- Carpentry and repair work to damaged structures
- Installing exclusion materials to a durable, professional standard
- Setting and removing wildlife traps as part of the exclusion process
- Documenting work accurately with before/after records
- Communicating findings and scope clearly with homeowners
You will spend significant time in attics, crawl spaces, on ladders and roofs, and outdoors in Florida weather. The work is hard, hot, and precise.
The Type of Person Who Succeeds Here
The strongest exclusion technicians are methodical, skilled with their hands, detail-obsessed, patient, and mentally and physically tough. They take the time to do it right, find the gaps others miss, and take pride in work that holds up for years.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys mastering a craft, doing difficult work well, structured advancement, and being trusted with quality.
What We're Looking For
Required
- Clean driving record and valid driver's license
- Comfortable working in attics, crawl spaces, on ladders, and on roofs
- Ability to lift 50+ lbs and work outdoors year-round
- Strong personal accountability and work ethic
- Ability to work independently without constant oversight
- Strong attention to detail and documentation
- Clear, direct communication skills
- Pass background check and drug screening
Strongly Preferred
- Construction, carpentry, roofing, or repair/remodel experience
- Pest control, wildlife, HVAC, or plumbing field experience
- Experience with exclusion, sealing, or weatherproofing work
- Stable work history with demonstrated reliability
Work Environment & Expectations
We run a structured, high-accountability operation: high standards, quality-first execution, consistent follow-through, strong communication, and professionalism. This is not a "clock in and coast" environment. We reward craftsmanship, discipline, reliability, and initiative.
Compensation & Benefits
- Defined advancement and compensation structure
- Performance bonuses and commissions
- Lead generation bonuses
- Company vehicle, gas card, phone, uniforms, and tools provided
- Paid licensing and training
- Health insurance reimbursement after 6 months
- Leadership growth opportunities
