Full job description

Arborist Trainee - Tree Worker / Driver

Burton Tree Service — North Okanagan / Shuswap

Burton Tree Service is a professional, owner-operated arborist business providing safe, well-planned tree work throughout the North Okanagan and Shuswap.

We’re looking for one reliable tree worker who can also drive company vehicles, and who is interested in developing technical skills and responsibility over time, as demand supports it.

The Role

You’ll work directly with the owner/operator (certified arborist), supporting field operations, logistics, and documentation.

Duties include:

Ground support for tree removals and pruning
Brush handling, chipping, hauling, limbing & bucking
Jobsite safety and situational awareness
Driving work trucks and towing equipment
Using skidsteer
Equipment loading, basic maintenance, yard work
Taking photos and short video clips of work in progress (training provided)
Training and preparation during slower periods

This is not a foreman role. As skills are developed and demand supports it, responsibilities may increase.

Technical Growth Expectation

You do not need climbing or high-angle experience on day one, but you must be willing to learn high-angle tree climbing & aerial device work over time.
This is not a permanent ground-only position.

Hours & Seasonality (Important)

Part-time, variable hours
Typically 8–32 hours/week during the working season
Work is seasonal and weather-dependent
Winter months may have little or no work
4-hour minimum paid when scheduled
Work planned in half- or full-day blocks

Pay

$25–$30/hour, depending on experience, driving qualifications, and technical skills
This role may start at different responsibility and pay levels based on what you bring
Pay reviewed as skills, reliability, and responsibility increase

Required

Valid driver’s licence + abstract
Confident driving trucks and backing trailers
Basic First Aid (or willing to obtain within 3 months of hire)
Physically capable of outdoor work
Reliable attendance and communication
Willingness to follow safety procedures and professional work standards

Preferred (Assets)

Air brakes endorsement
Heavy trailer endorsement or towing experience
Fall protection training / certification
Aerial lift / manlift training or experience
Mechanical aptitude
Faller training
Prior experience in tree work, forestry, utility work, construction, or related trades
Familiarity with chippers, rigging equipment, or rope systems

Relevant training and certifications are considered assets, not requirements. Additional training may be provided where appropriate.

This Role Is a Good Fit If You:

Are reliable, safety-minded, and physically capable
Are comfortable with seasonal, variable work
Are willing to learn technical / high-angle tree work
Are competent, comfortable, and responsible behind the wheel
Are comfortable using a phone or camera to document work

To Apply

Please send:

Resume
Driver’s abstract
Brief work background
Relevant experience / qualifications
Availability

Pay: $25.00-$30.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule
On-site parking

Licence/Certification:

Driving Licence (preferred)

Work Location: In person

Quick apply
