If you enjoy hands-on work, problem-solving, and tackling unique challenges, this could be the right role for you. Whether you have years of pest control experience or you're looking to start a new career, we want great people on our team.
Who We Are
Walker Pest Management is one of the oldest and largest family-owned pest control companies in South Carolina. We started in 2001 and have continued to grow every year since. We now employ around 40 team members across the state, and we keep adding more positions every year. If you're looking for a company with real growth opportunities and a culture built on people who genuinely care, this might be the place for you.
What You'll Be Doing
As a Specialty Technician, you'll handle a variety of pest control services, including:
- Completing your assigned area's tickets for the day in a company-provided vehicle

- Applying treatments safely and effectively, following label instructions and safety protocols
- Communicating clearly with customers and team about findings, treatment plans, and prevention tips
- Keeping accurate service records by completing tickets and required documentation
- Building trust with customers by providing the kind of service that keeps their spaces as pest-free as possible

What We're Looking For
- High school diploma or GED (required)
- Valid driver's license for at least 3 years (required)
- Pest control experience is a plus, but not required. Don't let your lack of experience stop you from applying. Many of our best technicians came from outside the industry.
- Experience pulling a trailer and using power tools is a perk, but not required
- Someone who's comfortable with physical work, pays attention to detail, and will represent our company well in customers' homes and businesses
Why You'll Like It Here
