Job Description
Cavins Group is seeking to hire several full-time Disaster Restoration Technicians . This position has a starting pay of up to $17 to $26 an hour depending on experience with the ability to earn overtime pay!We work 45hr to 70hr a week.
What does a Disaster Restoration Technician do? Well, every day is a little (or a LOT) different, but at the end of each day, what we do is help people!
Whether it's a broken pipe, refrigerator line, bathtub, or hot water heater, when people have a water emergency they turn to us. That's where YOU come in - you'll be meeting with the customer, assessing the damage, determining a scope of work, and then making the cleanup happen. You'll start off as a helper, but as you gain experience and certifications, you'll progress to Lead and then Supervisor. From there, you can grow to an Estimator, Project Manager and more.
We have a great team that works well together and are looking for a few more like-minded team players to join us. We offer competitive pay, benefits, and we like to have a little fun as a team - cookouts and other team events to bring everyone together for fun, not just work!
Previous experience is a plus, but not required - we will train you... you must bring a positive attitude and willingness to learn. Our core values are positive attitude, integrity, and caring - if you share those core values, then we can teach you the rest!
