The Job – Water Damage Technician

At On Side, Water Damage Technicians (WDTs) go wherever a burst pipe, blocked drain, sewer backup (yes, sometimes it’s one of those situations) or other water-related disaster calls. Understanding the urgency of the situation and working with customers in a caring, calm and empathetic manner are paramount to the success of a WDTs day

Working as a team, WDTs mop up the mess to ensure everything is shipshape and ready to get back to the pre-disaster state.

  • Friendly and enjoys working in a team
  • Valid driver’s licence & clean drivers abstract
  • Able to successfully satisfy On Side’s criminal record check requirements

Other stuff that will contribute to your success but isn’t required:

  • IICRC Water Damage Technician Certification (if you don’t have this, we’ll help you get it)
