Full Job Description

Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator Trainee

Caroline County Public Utilities

https://co.caroline.va.us/551/Employment-Opportunities

Salary: $43,307.89 - $46,637.87

Job Type: Full-Time | Essential Personnel

Launch a Stable Career in Environmental & Essential Public Service

Looking for a stable, hands-on career where you protect local water resources, gain valuable trade skills, and earn paid industry certifications? You do not need years of environmental chemistry or textbook theory to start a stable, well-paying trade career in public utilities. We are looking for someone with practical common sense, a solid work ethic, and good mechanical instincts - someone who knows their way around basic hand tools, pays attention to how machinery runs, and takes pride in solving real-world problems.

Caroline County will provide the hands-on-training, mentorship, study materials, and paid support to help you earn your Commonwealth of Virginia Class IV Wastewater Works Operator license.

What You will Do

Under general supervision, you will ensure our treatment plant operates safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with environmental standards.

Operate & Maintain: Monitor equipment, perform routine plant maintenance, and assist with mechanical repairs.
Observe & Troubleshoot: Walk the plant grounds, monitor gauges and digital readouts, listen for unusual equipment noise, and catch mechanical issues before they become breakdowns.
Hands-On Testing: Collect basic water and sludge samples across the facility and run straightforward bench tests (we will train you step-by-step).
Data & Compliance: Record operational data, maintain logs, and assist in maintaining quality assurance standards.
Community Safety: Keep critical public health infrastructure running smoothly 24/7/365.

Who We are Looking For

· Mechanical Aptitude: You have experience repairing your own vehicle, working in general maintenance, construction, farming, small engine repair, or a related trade.

· Solid Common Sense: You stay aware of your surroundings, follow safety rules around heavy machinery, and make smart decisions under minimal supervision.

· Reliability: You show up on time, communicate clearly, and take pride in dependable work.

· Basic Requirements: High school diploma or GED equivalent, valid Virginia driver’s license, ability to lift up to 50 lbs, and comfort working outdoors in various weather conditions.

· License Track: Willingness to learn the position and pass the Class IV licensing exam within 12 months (fully supported and funded by the County).

What We Offer

· Paid On-The-Job Training: Earn a full paycheck while learning a licensed trade with zero student debt.

· Clear Pay Advancement: Getting your Class IV license unlocks automatic bumps in job title and pay grade, opening up a long-term career path.

· County Benefits: Comprehensive health insurance, Virginia Retirement System (VRS) pension, paid time off, and stability in essential public service.

How to Apply

Position open until filled. Apply online via the Caroline County Employment Portal.
