WDO Inspector (Termite Inspector)

Description

We're not just looking for an inspector — we're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys solving problems for homeowners and takes ownership of every job from first visit to final treatment.

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced, licensed WDO Inspector who takes pride in protecting customers' most valuable asset — their home. You'll conduct thorough Wood Destroying Organism inspections, deliver expert recommendations, and generate bids that reflect both quality and value.

This is a role for someone who is equal parts technical expert and trusted advisor. You know your stuff in the field, and you know how to communicate it clearly to customers and crews alike.

What You'll Do

• Perform WDO inspections and complete reports in compliance with the Structural Pest Control Board Act
• Set clear, accurate customer expectations around the report process, treatment plans, and service timelines
• Generate competitive, profitable bids and follow up to close
• Answer customer and crew questions — before, during, and after treatment
• Conduct supplemental inspections and support ongoing contract fulfillment
• Support company marketing initiatives and contribute to team sales goals
• Maintain assigned company equipment and uphold all safety standards

Why Join Us

• Work with a supportive team that values your expertise and initiative
• Ongoing training through our Learning Management System and company meetings
• Company-provided safety equipment and tools
• A culture built on communication, ownership, and showing up for each other
• Great benefits including medical, 401K, employee assistance program, vacation, sick leave, paid holidays
