Oxford, United Kingdom Pure Pest Solutions Full time

Fancy a career doing something different? I run a small but very successful pest control business that is growing and taking on a 5th trainee pest controller. We are looking for the right person to fit in our team who has a can do attitude, takes pride in their work, can complete their job and deal with customers to a very high standard.

We find when people join they stay as we work in a really positive environment. You will be trained in everything that you need to do. In time you would be dealing with treating wasps, rats, mice, bed bugs, moths and other pests in residential and commercial sites.

Being a pest controller has many different facets. One minute you will be a detective working out how a rat came into a kitchen, the next safely dealing with a wasp nest with up to 10,000 wasp in. At the same time writing detailed reports and giving excellent customer service throughout.

Remember this job is HARD WORK and involves:

- A lot of driving (sometimes 100 miles in a day) so you will need a full driving license for at least two years
- 40 hour contract + some commuting time
- Liaising with the office manager throughout the day
- Generally undertaking a minimum of 8 visits per day to many different customer types
- Heat treatments for bed bugs involves some heavy lifting so you must be physically fit
- Be able to use an iPhone for writing reports, all training will be given

Therefore you must be:

- Really good at communication and giving customers excellent service
- Ready for hard work both on your own and working in a team and ready for the occasional 6am start.
- Be well presented

What’s in it for you?
- The good part is you will get on the job and classroom training including your level 2 pest management award
- Working in a great environment with all the support you need
- Monthly 1 on 1's to discuss development and challenges
- Monthly team breakfast
- Ice Cream allowance in summer (Yes Really)
- Your own fueled van (with air con)
- An iPhone
- A genuine satisfaction that you help people day in and out
- Your starting wage is £22,000, this will rise as experience grows. Increasing by £2000 per year, up to £30,000 You will also get 10% commission on any leads on commercial contracts.

If you think this is for you then please get in touch writing a few lines about why this role is just right for you.
