Pest Control Technician

Looking to trade the corporate grind for a business that treats you like a person rather than a number?

We are partnering with a highly successful, independent pest control specialist that has been keeping London clear for over 30 years. They are busy, growing, and need an enthusiastic, qualified Pest Control Technician to join their close-knit team of six.

Whether you prefer cruising the M25 in a fully kitted-out company van or navigating Central London patches on foot, this company offers true flexibility to suit your working style.

Why This Role is Different

• No Routine On-Call: Forget being tethered to your phone on weekends. There is no routine evening or weekend on-call rota. Any out-of-hours work is rare and booked well in advance.
• Early Finishes: Van technicians typically head out around 06:00 to beat the traffic, hit their first job by 07:00, and are often wrapped up and heading home by 15:00 once the day's work is done. Although you can start at 8 if you like!!
• Real Earning Potential: On top of a competitive base salary, you will earn paid overtime (£25 per hour) and a generous commission for any leads or larger proofing jobs you quote for.
• Van Perks: If you take the van route, it is yours for personal use too — just log your private mileage on your worksheet.

The Day-to-Day

You will be managing a manageable patch, typically tackling 5 to 8 jobs per day. The client base is a rock-solid mix of commercial and residential, with a heavy emphasis on commercial properties, managing agents, office blocks, and residential flat developments.

• Carrying out routine inspections and treatments
• Handling minor proofing and patching on-site
• Identifying larger proofing opportunities, quoting the work, and banking the commission
• Building great relationships with building managers and office contacts

What We Need From You

While experience is great, personality is king here. The team is built on a positive, friendly culture, so you need to be enthusiastic, easy to talk to, and great with customers.

The Essentials:

• RSPH / BPCA Level 2 in Pest Management (or equivalent)
• A full UK driving licence (if applying for the van-based role)
• A positive, proactive attitude and great communication skills
• Comfort working on commercial sites and dealing with managing agents

The Package

• Base salary of £33,000–£35,000 (with flexibility for the right person)
• Paid overtime (£25/hr) + lead generation commission
• Company van (with personal use allowed) or travel card provided for foot patches
• Standard auto-enrolment pension scheme
• A brilliant, supportive team culture with long-serving colleagues

How to Apply

The business is ready to move quickly on this, and interviews will be happening promptly. If you are a qualified technician looking for a refreshing change of pace and a company that values your hard work, hit apply today.
