Growing Seasons Landscaping (GSL) is hiring a Heavy Equipment Operator for our Well Services Division. This role requires hands-on experience operating excavators, skid steers, and dozers in oil & gas or heavy civil environments.

You’ll support pad construction, access roads, site restoration, and well site operations. Candidates must be safety-focused, reliable, and able to maintain grade accurately on active job sites.

  • Assist ground crew as needed to keep production moving
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and compliant jobsite at all times

Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years operating excavators, skid steers, and dozers
  • Proven ability to hold grade and perform finish work (not just rough grading)
  • Experience in oil & gas, utilities, heavy civil, or industrial construction
  • Strong understanding of jobsite safety and hazard awareness
  • Ability to pass drug screening and background check
  • Reliable transportation and strong attendance
  • Willingness to work outdoors in all weather conditions

  • Participate in daily safety meetings (tailgate/toolbox talks)
  • Maintain awareness of underground utilities, trench safety, and equipment hazards
  • Proper use of PPE at all times (hard hat, steel-toe boots, high-visibility vest, gloves, eye protection)
  • Ability to recognize and report unsafe conditions or behaviors immediately
  • OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 certification preferred (or willingness to obtain)

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to climb on/off equipment multiple times per day
  • Ability to lift to 50 lbs
  • Comfortable working around heavy equipment, uneven terrain, and active job sites

Why Join GSL – Well Services

  • Competitive pay (based on experience)
