Wastewater Treatment Operations Specialist Level B

Location: Columbia, SC 29334

1st Shift (Mon. Thurs. 7a to 3/4p)

Four-Day Workweek. Private Sector Pay. Real Impact.

Youve put in the work. You know wastewater treatment inside and out. Now imagine finishing your workweek by Thursday afternoon and bringing home $28 an hour or more.

Were placing an experienced Level B Physical/Chemical Operator with a private environmental services company in NE Columbia, SC. This is a direct hire position no temp-to-perm runway, no waiting. You join their team from day one.

As a Level B operator, youre not just maintaining youre optimizing. The company expects you to think, troubleshoot, and make decisions. That means:

• Operating and maintaining physical/chemical wastewater treatment systems within permit limits

• Independently adjusting equipment and chemical feed systems to get the best performance

• Performing routine sampling, testing, and process monitoring to hit compliance targets

• Completing discharge monitoring reports, operational logs, and required documentation

• Collaborating with plant leadership to improve performance and efficiency

• Supporting less experienced operators and mentoring when needed

• Using Service Fusion or similar platforms for accurate operational data

You hold a South Carolina Level B Physical/Chemical Operator License (or higher) and you have at least a year of real operational experience under your belt. Youve probably spent that time in a government or municipal setting and you know you can do more with a team that moves faster and rewards performance.

You can troubleshoot independently. You dont need to be told twice. And youre ready for a company that trusts you to run your section of the plant the right way.

• SC Level B Physical/Chemical Operator License or higher

• 1+ year of wastewater operations experience

• Strong grasp of physical/chemical treatment processes
