As a Restoration Crew Lead, you'll be responsible for leading restoration projects in the field while helping customers navigate some of the most stressful situations they may ever experience.

Your day may begin by meeting with your crew, reviewing the schedule, loading equipment, and heading to a customer's home or business.
