Position Summary

As a Crane Operator on our General Tree Care team, you’ll be part of the muscle of our operation—helping provide safe, high-quality tree care for clients in your community. You’ll work outdoors on beautiful properties, alongside a talented, safety-minded crew, and put your crane operation skills and industry knowledge to use every day. In addition to tree care, you may also handle subcontracting work such as assisting steel companies, moving hot tubs, and more.

What a Day Is Like

• Operate cranes safely and effectively in support of tree removals, pruning, cabling, and bracing
• Collaborate with crew members to provide top-quality service to clients
• Perform subcontracting crane work for external companies as needed
• Maintain and operate equipment in alignment with safety standards and company procedures

About You

You are a skilled and safety-conscious operator who enjoys working outdoors and on a team. You bring:
• Demonstrated knowledge of general crane operation
• NCCCO or NCCER certification (preferred)
• Valid Driver’s License and Class A CDL
• Basic knowledge of tree identification (a plus, but not required)
• Prior tree care experience (valued, but not required)

Physical Requirements

This role requires frequent standing, walking, kneeling, bending, reaching, and lifting. You’ll work outdoors in all weather conditions and must be able to work safely around heavy equipment and machinery.

About SavATree

SavATree was founded 45 years ago with a mission to preserve trees threatened by the gypsy moth epidemic. Since then, we’ve grown into a nationwide leader in tree, shrub, and lawn care services.

We invest heavily in training and continuing education, fostering a collaborative culture where team members help each other succeed. SavATree provides the resources and opportunities for employees to grow their careers and become subject matter experts.
