We are seeking a motivated team player with excellent references and the desire to build skills, knowledge, experience, and provide excellent customer service. Someone who takes pride in their work with the goal to learn and continually grow both personally and professionally.
Stump Masters is a new company. We specialize in stump removal throughout the Treasure Valley. After running a successful commercial landscape maintenance company for 37 years, doing $1M in sales and fine tuning it to reach a 50% profit margin, I sought to start and develop a highly efficient, specialized company providing the very best service possible and designed to benefit all parties involved: Stump Masters, the employee, and of course, the customer.
We will monitor and track every aspect of our operations to continually improve, while determining the best equipment to use. This will give us solid data to put systems and procedures in place. Then it will be time to execute, replicate, and grow. There are several ancillary services we may offer in the future with possible expansion to different markets.
Employees are paid an hourly rate. I plan to implement a revenue share bonus program where you will earn a percentage of the revenue you generate as a skilled operator.
Overtime is paid. FT employees receive three (3) personal days per year (required by Federal law), six (6) paid vacation days, paid gym membership after 90 days, and one (1) week paid vacation after one (1) year of FT employment and, two (2) weeks of paid vacation after three (3) years of FT employment.
