Benton, United States Stake Center Locating Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

We are hiring for Entry Level and Experienced Utility Locators/Field Technicians in Benton, West Frankfort, Franklin County, and beyond

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.

What we offer:

Since 1997, we have been on a mission to make Stake Center a better place to work. We have been working with our locate technicians to make Stake Center the company of choice for locators like you. In just the last six months:

  • We begin insurance coverage as of your first day on-the-job and in the last renewal cycle, we dropped insurance cost premiums.
  • We rolled out short disability and life insurance free of charge to protect you and the people who depend on you.
  • We’ve deployed our Accelerate Your Career Program with defined levels and built-in rewards (including raises) for proving your progression through skills testing.
  • We began an aggressive role out plan to put best-in-the-business locating devices and late model vehicles, into the hands of 100% of our locate technicians.
  • We are providing vouchers that can be used on 300+ types of Red Wing safety shoes (a total of $100 after every six months of service).
  • We instituted a Hall of Fame to recognize the best locators in the company and we believe, some of the very best in the industry.
  • Referral bonus programs are in place all states. If you would like to work in a state that is not where you live today, let us know as relocation support may be available.
  • Finally, we conducted an industry-wide scan of employee benefits and believe we are as good and often better than others. Where we are best-in-class (as with paid holidays), we intend to stay that way.
    • Medical, Dental, Vision, 401k (Tops in the industry)

Don’t take our word for it though, drop us an email at experiencecounts@stakecenter.com to talk to one of our top locate technicians or request a fast-track application for experienced hires only.

Key Responsibilities:

We will train entry level Locating Technicians to:

  • Think Safety First
  • Use a laptop computer to receive, document and process tickets and email.
  • Read maps, interpret blueprints, and determine the best method & sequence for locating.
  • Use provided locate equipment & technology to accurately locate underground utilities.
  • Communicate effectively with peers, managers, and homeowners.

Qualifications:

  • 18 years of age or older.
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Valid driver license with an acceptable driving record.
  • Ability to walk up to 5 miles a day 2-3 times a week.
  • Ability to carry up to 5 lbs of electronic locating equipment for extended periods of time; lifting objects up to 25 lbs or lifting in excess of 75 lbs with tool aids.
  • Pass pre-employment background and drug screening.

Schedule:

  • Will need to have the ability to work a flexible schedule (some evenings, weekends, and an occasional Holiday) as ticket/production load requires.
  • Employees will respond to emergency calls during scheduled on-call shift rotation.

We understand what is at stake for our employees, our customers, and our customers’ customers. That is why we continually invest in our people, equipment, and technology. To us you are a professional - this is a career not just a job
