What are the responsibilities and job description for the Utility Line tree trimmer position at Conner Tree Service?
We are looking for someone who has experience trimming around utility lines and right of ways. We only trim communication lines, no power lines. You will be driving a 5 speed bucket truck under CDL, pulling a chipper and have 1-2 guys working with you. Most of the work is in residential areas around Richmond, some will be right of ways in other areas around Virginia. Some off road and some on road. 80% is local and 20% is out of town. We stay out Mon.-Fri. and come home for the weekend when the out of town jobs come around.
It would be great if this person can also climb. Some times there is no access for the bucket and a few limbs that are out of reach for the pole saw. But that’s rare and not a deal breaker if you don’t climb.
Work hours are Mon.-Fri. 8-5 with over time and Sat. only if you want it, or for storm damage and emergencies.
A few times a year we could get an after hours call to take a tree off the line.
This person must have a valid drivers license, pass a drug test and background check.
