The Bristol Pest Controller

Website The Bristol Pest Controller

Experienced Pest Control Technician — Bristol & Bath
£30,000–£35,000 (dependent on experience) | Full-time, Permanent | Company van & phone provided

We’re looking for a confident, BPCA/RSPH Level 2-qualified pest control technician to join one of Bristol’s most established teams. If you’ve got hands-on field experience and want more variety, better support and real opportunities to develop — this is worth a look.

Why join us
We’re a small, family-run, independent pest control company and a Living Wage employer, trading in Bristol and the surrounding area for over 25 years. We’ve built a genuinely strong team of pest controllers and we’re expanding to keep pace with customer demand.

Small Company of the Year 2017
Top 3 Pest Control in Bristol, 8 years running
Best Pest Control Company in Bristol — Quality Business Awards, 2024 & 2025
Shortlisted, BPCA Commitment to Training Award
Rated 5 stars by customers on Google

What you’ll be doing
Attending jobs across Bristol/Bath (with some further travel) to carry out environmental surveys, risk assessments, pest investigation and treatment planning
Running rodent treatment programmes, heat treatment for bed bugs, and insect control for fleas, moths, flies, silverfish and more
Seasonal wasp, ant and bee work over the summer months
Bird prevention work — netting, wire systems and spikes, including birdproofing on solar panel installations (full height-safety training and equipment provided)
Completing digital evaluation reports after each visit and managing your own booking schedule and customer communication
You’ll be the face of The Bristol Pest Controller for many of our clients, so this is a role for someone who’s as comfortable managing their own patch and talking to customers as they are diagnosing a difficult infestation.

What we’re looking for
RSPH/BPCA Level 2 (or equivalent) held or in progress — if you’re not yet qualified but have relevant field experience, we’ll fund the training, but we’re prioritising candidates who already hold the qualification
Full UK driving licence
Confidence working at height (full training provided for our birdproofing/solar work)
Strong customer-facing communication, both face-to-face and in writing
Comfortable working independently and managing your own schedule
Available to work one Saturday in every four

What you’ll get
£30,000–£35,000, based on experience
Company van and mobile phone
20 days paid holiday plus bank holidays
Nest pension (ethical provider)
Full uniform and PPE, including safety boots
BPCA registered ID card and ongoing CPD
A personal development plan built around your goals
Performance-based bonus
A team-lead mentor on hand — support when you want it, not oversight you don’t need
