Company is seeking an experienced Water Well Driller who will be responsible for delivering drilling projects ranging from 2” & up to 16” wells, plastic & steel, in glacial drift or bedrock. As a drilling expert you will supervise all other personnel on site and communication with property owner, driller’s helper & office staff to ensure timely and professional completion of drilling projects. You will also be responsible for maintaining the trucks, drilling equipment, mechanics, safety regulations, paperwork & logbooks.
