Pest Control Branch Manager
Facility ServicesYou run the entire branch — the technicians, the routes, the trucks, the chemicals, the budget, and the customer complaints about the tech who tracked mud through the living room. You've moved from killing bugs to running a business that kills bugs, and the problems are entirely different. Employee turnover, vehicle maintenance, chemical inventory, and revenue targets are your daily reality. But the ceiling is real: top branch managers clear $90K+ and run operations worth millions.
