Tree Removal: Perform partial or complete tree removals, often in hazardous or confined situations, coordinating with a ground crew to safely lower limbs and sections of the trunk.
Equipment Operation: Utilize and maintain various tools and heavy machinery, including chainsaws, handsaws, chippers, stump grinders, and potentially cranes or loaders.
Safety and Compliance: Adhere to all company, OSHA, and ANSI safety rules and regulations. This includes inspecting all gear (ropes, saddles, etc.) for safe functionality and conducting risk assessments of trees and worksites.

Physical Stamina: Ability to perform strenuous manual labor in various weather conditions and lift heavy objects (50-100 pounds).
Technical Knowledge: Familiarity with tree biology, climbing knots, and proper roping procedures.
Certifications (Preferred): Relevant certifications, such as an ISA Certified Arborist credential or ISA Certified Tree Climber Specialist certification, are highly valued.
Licenses: A valid driver's license is typically required, with a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) often preferred.
