Crane Operator (Tree Care Division)

Location: Jessup, MD
Pay: $28–$35/hour (based on experience)
Schedule: Monday–Friday + Overtime & Emergency Work
Year-Round Opportunity

This Isn't Just Another Driving Job

This is precision work. Big equipment. High responsibility. Real impact.

We're growing fast, and we're looking for a skilled Crane Operator who knows their way around a job site and takes pride in doing things the right way-safe, efficient, and controlled.

You'll be operating a 23-ton stick crane mounted on an International truck, working alongside a tight-knit crew that depends on you to make the toughest removals look easy.

What You'll Be Doing

• Operating a 23-ton stick crane for tree removals and technical lifts
• Setting up jobs safely and efficiently (rigging, load control, communication)
• Working closely with climbers and ground crew to execute complex removals
• Performing daily equipment inspections and basic maintenance
• Responding to emergency storm work when needed

Why This Role Stands Out

• High-skill, high-respect position - you're a critical part of the operation
• Consistent overtime opportunities, especially during storm and emergency work
• Work with a company that's growing fast and investing in its people and equipment
• No two days are the same - real challenges, real problem-solving

What You Need

• CDL (Commercial Driver's License) – required
• Proven experience operating cranes (construction, tree work, or similar)
• Strong understanding of job site safety and load dynamics
• Ability to stay calm and focused under pressure
• Willingness to be available for after-hours emergency calls when needed

Big Plus (Not Required)

• Certified Crane Operator license
• Experience in tree removal or arboriculture work

Who This is Perfect For

• An experienced operator who takes pride in precision and safety
• Someone who wants more than repetitive job site work
• Someone who's ready to be part of a high-performing crew and growing company
• Someone who doesn't mind the occasional "all hands on deck" moment when storms hit

If you're the kind of operator who enjoys making difficult jobs look effortless-and wants to be part of a company that's building something real-this is your seat in the cab.
