Grand Rapids, United States BrightView Landscapes Full time

Description

At BrightView, the best teams are created and maintained here.  If you are searching for your next fulfilling career, picture yourself on a best-in-class team where you can grow to be your brightest.  We’re looking for a Snow Equipment Operator (Sidewalk Crew). Can you picture yourself here?


 
THE STARTING RATE OF PAY FOR A SNOW LABORER THIS SEASON IS $20.00 PER HOUR BUT COULD GO UP FROM THERE BASED ON PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE, LICENSES OR CERTIFICATIONS YOU HAVE.
 
 
 
Snow Season positions are Seasonal, Part-time, ON-CALL & OVERNIGHT positions for most Branches, though there could be more hours for some Branches depending upon service contracts. You will not likely start work until the first measurable snowfall of the year that cannot be handled by the full-time crew we retain all year, so there could be a significant period of time between receiving and accepting an offer of employment before you start working.
 
 
 
As a company, we use E-Verify; which means, you MUST have the actual documents required to prove your right to work in the US in order to interview and receive an Offer of Employment.
 
 
 
The requirements for this role are the ability to reliably commute to the BranchAuthorization to Work in the US (physical documents required to prove), Valid Driver’s License, preferably a Chauffer’s License (OR BEING ABLE TO OBTAIN ONE BEFORE STARTING WORK.) and the ability to report to the Branch in an On-Call manner, when contacted and asked to do so. Please note: This is hard, physically demanding work in extreme temperatures, often OVERNIGHT and for 4-12 hours at a time. You are NOT guaranteed to only operate Heavy Machinery. You could be needed at times to help the Sidewalk Crew with either Hand tools (like shovels) or smaller machinery. This is not work for the faint of heart, so please consider all of this before applying. Please also note: Heavy Machinery experience is required for these roles.
 
 
 
Interviews could start as soon as Late October, though there has been no firm timeline shared by this branch at this time, this is just an estimate based on previous years recruiting notes.
 
 
 
 

Here’s what you’d do:

The Snow Equipment Operator must be interested in learning to do all aspects of snow removal during the winter. Shifts are on-call and range from 6 to 12 hours and are often overnight depending on the storm event. May require longer hours for larger storms. The season starts on the first snow fall. 

You’d be responsible for:

  • Responsible for performing all tasks related to snow removal, including operating ATV plows, snow blowers, snow shovels and e-pokes (salt spreaders).  
  • Work with Sidewalk-Crew Leaders as a team to efficiently and safely complete each assignment            
  • Being available each time it snows and report either to a central location or directly to the jobsite
  • Removing snow in appropriate locations, avoiding piling it on trees, shrubs, fire hydrants or sidewalks
  • Reporting any concerns or incidents to your direct Supervisor
  • Filling out a job sheet as soon as you are finished working after each snow removal operation
  • Participating in maintaining a safe and secure work environment for team employees and clients by adhering to company safety policies
  • Being aware of safety issues or concerns, and report them to the appropriate Supervisor
  • Performing other tasks as assigned by supervisor/manager

You might be a good fit if you have:

  • High School Diploma or GED 
  • Valid Driver's License and the ability to drive to a variety of work locations in assigned territory
  • Reliable transportation to and from any work site

And while not mandatory, it would be great if you also have:

  • Prior experience operating snow plow equipment 
  • Ability to participate in routine maintenance of equipment
  • Experience working efficiently in a production-driven / fast paced environment
  • Physically able to work outside, sometimes in extreme weather conditions with sporadic hours based on a snow event
  • Ability to lift 50 pounds
  • Ability to climb in and out of equipment
  • Ability to sit for long periods of time
  • Ability to safely operate equipment
  • Ability to communicate effectively
  • Willing to dress appropriately for all weather conditions
  • Able to work overnight in the winter month
  • Dependability

Here’s what to know about working here:

Here at BrightView, we’re as passionate about caring for our clients as we are about caring for each other. Though we’re the nation’s leading landscape company, we maintain a small company feel and supportive environment that makes our team members feel at home. 

If you’re looking to join a team of talented go-getters who tackle big vision projects other companies could only dream of, you just might have found your match. With our range of services, including landscape design, development, maintenance and enhancements, there’s no limit to what we can do, and what you can achieve.
