Join our dynamic team as a Commercial Pest Technician and become a vital part of protecting businesses, properties, and landscapes from unwanted pests.

Duties
- Service commercial accounts including hotels, offices, restaurants, multifamily apartment buildings, medical and healthcare facilities, coffee shops, and similar properties across NYC and the surrounding metro area

- Apply your active license to perform regulated treatments and maintain compliance with all state and local pesticide application requirements
- Serve as the company’s certifying license holder (at the Commercial Applicator level), enabling GNPC to purchase restricted-use chemicals and supervise other technicians applying product under your certification as the team grows
- Build and maintain strong relationships with facility managers, GMs, and on-site staff, representing GNPC as a trusted, professional partner rather than a vendor
- Maintain accurate service records, treatment logs, and compliance documentation for every account
- Identify recurring issues and recommend proactive treatment plans, helping clients move from reactive pest control to prevention
- Provide direct, hands-on input into how GNPC builds its standard operating procedures, service protocols, routing, and quality standards
- Help train and onboard future technicians as the company grows
- Manage compliant chemical storage, inventory, and ordering through distributor relationships (e.g., Veseris, Univar, Target Specialty)
- Own NYSDEC application recordkeeping and annual use/sales reporting, maintain the SDS library and OSHA Hazard Communication program, and keep every account audit- and inspection-ready
- Keep your certification in good standing, including continuing-education credits and recertification (every 3 years)
- Use field-service software (e.g., PestPac, FieldRoutes, or Briostack) for scheduling, service records, and compliant reporting
Skills
