FAQs
Do I need water treatment experience to apply?
Not for every role. Spectrum runs on-the-job training and hires for work ethic, problem solving, character and competency — which is how the leadership team describes what they look for. Field, shop and office roles all take people who are new to the industry.
How much travel is involved?
It depends entirely on the role. Field crews travel nationwide with generous per diem; shop, lab and office roles are based at a yard. Vehicle allowances are available for qualifying positions.
Where are the roles based?
The three yards are Geismar, LA; Lake Charles, LA; and Houston, TX (Galena Park). Field roles mobilize from those yards to client sites across the country.
