Preseason training includes up to 5 hours of virtual training, an on-site orientation and safety  work is weather-dependent, with no traditional weekly schedule—we work when it snows and often for several days following a storm. Hours vary based on storm activity, operational needs, and availability, with shifts of up to 12hours per day and overtime as needed.

For over a decade, JMC has specialized in trailer-top ice and snow removal across the Northeast, with a strong commitment to road safety. We put our people first and believe strong teams, experienced leadership, and a safety-first culture are the foundation of the work we do. We pride ourselves on clear communication, teamwork, and thorough service that consistently exceeds customer expectations.

Are you looking for a seasonal role where you can stay active, work outdoors, and be part of a dedicated team that makes a real difference when winter weather hits? At JMC, our work goes beyond clearing snow—we remove dangerous snow and ice buildup from the tops of tractor-trailers before those trailers return to the road, using specialized equipment to help reduce the risk of snow and ice coming off moving trailers and creating hazards for other motorists.

As a Facility Technician, you will work at one location which is a specific distribution center nearest to you. Working as part of a team, you’ll perform hands‑on snow and ice removal services on an average of approximately 100 trailers per day, helping ensure services are completed safely, efficiently, and to JMC’s standards.

Your responsibilities will include operating a scraper system, directing traffic through the service area, documenting completed services, and performing other hands‑on snow and ice removal tasks. When ice is present, team members will work from a secured platform and use a long‑handled mallet to physically break up ice buildup on the tops of tractor‑trailers so the scraper system can remove it.

This can be labor‑intensive work requiring repeated physical effort; however, team members work together and rotate responsibilities throughout the service to help distribute the physical demands of the job. Depending on your experience and qualifications, you may also have the opportunity to operate snowplows and/or front‑wheel loaders.

This is a weather‑dependent, physically demanding position where teamwork, flexibility, communication, and attention to safety are essential. If you're dependable, comfortable working outdoors, ready to work when winter weather hits, and looking to be part of a team that makes a difference, join JMC's winter team and help make the roads safer.

We’re looking for team members with various skill levels and experience, including:

• Snowplow Operators
• Front‑Wheel Loader Operators

• Break Up Ice:
  When ice is present, work from a secured platform and use a long‑handled mallet to physically break up ice buildup on the tops of tractor‑trailers, allowing the scraper system to…
