EMT

Alright, let's talk about this job. It's a driving position, but it's not just moving freight from point A to point B. You'll be operating Class A trucks for environmental and industrial cleanup work in New York, NY. Think vacuum trucks, roll offs, that kind of equipment. The work itself is a mix of driving and hands on labor at customer sites, often dealing with hazardous materials.

The Work

Your main focus is safe operation. That means following every rule; company policy, DOT regulations, you name it. You're driving commercial vehicles and pitching in with the field crew when you're not behind the wheel; it's a team job.

• Operate a range of Class A trucks and equipment.
• Handle loading and unloading.
• Perform manual labor on site to get the customer's job done.
• Properly placard all vehicles according to DOT and company rules.
• Keep up with daily logs, time sheets, and other paperwork.
• Safely follow all operating procedures and environmental health guidelines.

A couple specific notes: depending on the exact position, you might be on an emergency response rotation every other week. The work can involve site remediation, equipment decontamination, and handling hazardous waste.

The Schedule & Training

This isn't a standard home every night gig. The role requires about 50% travel. You could be out on the road for several weeks at a time. Hours and your schedule aren't guaranteed; they change based on emergency response needs.

New hires are required to attend our two week Academy training out of state. Don't worry about the cost; the company covers all expenses, and you're paid for your time in training.

What You Need to Bring

A few things are non negotiable to start:

• A valid Class A CDL.
• The ability to obtain your Hazmat and Tanker endorsements within 90 days of employment.
• You need to be comfortable using different mobile devices.
• The job has physical demands; you must be able to perform the required functions.
• Per OSHA standards for respirator use, certain facial hair styles aren't permitted if they interfere with the seal.

It'd be great if you also had:

• Commercial driving experience already under your belt.
• Those Hazmat and Tanker endorsements in hand already.
• Previous experience with hazardous materials.
• Skill with a manual transmission.
• A background in manual labor.
