Utility Locate Technician - Plymouth, Minnesota US

at  Stake Center Locating

WE ARE HIRING FOR ENTRY-LEVEL AND EXPERIENCED UTILITY LOCATORS/FIELD TECHNICIANS IN THE TWIN CITIES!

Stake Center Locating is hiring entry-level and experienced Locate Technicians to locate underground utilities, troubleshoot, and mark the ground (using paint and flags), promoting damage prevention in your community. We will train you on the job and equip you with the basic skills to be successful in our 100% paid training. What you’ll need to bring is a preference to work outdoors in all weather, a desire to work independently, and an ability to problem-solve with speed and accuracy.
If you have been locating for a while, then you know the drill. You know that not everyone can do this work and do it well. You know that the independence and problem-solving demonstrated every day comes with big responsibilities. If you are reading this though it probably also means that despite hard days and long days, you still want to be a locate technician.
Stake Center values your experience. We respect the miles you have logged, the tickets you have cleared and the expertise that only comes with time. We have also seen the trends in our industry. There is a lot of bouncing around between companies and we want to be your last stop.
