At
Boston Harbor Water Restoration
in Weymouth, MA, we do things differently. We are a fast-growing, tech-forward restoration company led by a young, driven team that genuinely cares about investing in our people. While the restoration industry is notorious for high churn and treating techs like temporary bodies, we operate like a championship team: we hire higher-skilled, high-drive professionals, hold a high standard, and pay accordingly.
We live by three core values:
Hustle, Discipline, and Teamwork
. Around here, respect and trust are earned through consistency and quality work. If you take pride in your craft, love being alongside high-performing co-workers, want to increase your income over time, and are seeking an opportunity to build a long-term career with a company that has your back, you'll fit right in.
We are seeking a
Mitigation Technician
. In this role, you are the frontline hero helping homeowners and businesses recover from water, fire, and property emergencies. You will perform hands-on containment, demolition, extraction, and restoration while capturing project data digitally.
You need to be a
driven individual, looking to grow, and earn more
. In fact, if you are working towards saving for a new vehicle, house, or anything else, this job will help you get there faster! You can work additional hours and receive OT pay. And, we want team members who care - show up on time (or early!), take pride in their work, and naturally give 100% effort in everything, and want to help.
This isn't just a daily labor job - it is a launchpad. We expect technicians to master project scopes rather swiftly, run jobs self-sufficiently without hand-holding, and position themselves to advance into Lead Technician or Production Manager roles, if that is desired.
