What are the responsibilities and job description for the Tree Removal Climber (Experienced) position at Adam's Tree Service and Removal?
Adam’s Tree Service is growing and we’re looking for an experienced climber who can take control of the canopy and operate safely, efficiently, and professionally.
This position is for a skilled climber — not a trainee. You must be confident in removals, advanced rigging, and production pruning.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Performing technical tree removals and precision pruning
- Executing advanced rigging and controlled lowering
- Evaluating tree structure and identifying risk factors
- Leading ground crew during climbing operations

What We’re Looking For
- Demonstrated professional tree climbing experience
- Strong rigging and felling knowledge
- Active driver’s license
- Ability to communicate clearly with crew and homeowners
- Safety-focused mindset
- Leadership potential
CDL and/or ISA certification = higher starting pay.
Why Work With Us?
We are not a volume-churn tree company. We focus on quality work, strong client relationships, and building a tight, dependable crew.
- 5-star local reputation
- Competitive hourly pay based on skill level
- Clear path toward crew leadership or operational management
- Health insurance
- Dental insurance
- Referral incentives
