Full job description
Yard Technician ENCON Equipment | Nicholasville, KY | Full-Time First Hands In. Last Hands Out. Every machine that comes back to ENCON goes through a Yard Technician first. Every machine that goes out to a customer goes through a Yard Technician last. Our customers count on getting equipment that’s clean, safe, and ready to work, and you’re the one who makes that happen. This isn’t a back-lot job. It’s one of the most important roles in the company. The Basics
- Full-time, Monday to Friday
- Overtime as needed
- Some Saturdays from March to Thanksgiving or as needed
- Outdoor work in all weather conditions
- Valid driver’s license required
What You’ll Do
- Check equipment in. You’re the first to inspect a machine when it comes back. Catch the damage and problems early, and document what you find.
- Get it ready. Clean, service, and inspect every machine so it’s ready for the next customer.
- Be the final check. Nothing leaves the yard unless it’s safe and working right.
- Work with customers. Help them load and unload, show them how equipment works, and answer their questions. You’ll talk with customers as much as anyone here.
- Move equipment. Run forklifts and other machines to move equipment on the yard and load trailers and trucks.
- Keep the yard running. Stay organized, track where equipment is, and flag anything that needs a mechanic.
You’re a Good Fit If You
- Show up on time and work hard
- Take pride in doing things right
- Notice the small stuff
- Like working with your hands and being outside
- Are comfortable talking with customers
- Can lift up to 50 lbs
- Take safety seriously
Where This Job Can Take You This is where careers in the equipment rental business start. As a Yard Tech, you’ll learn the business from the ground up: every machine in our fleet, how it should run, what breaks and why, and how a rental company actually operates.

- Driver
- Mechanic
- Customer Service
What You Get
- Competitive hourly pay
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Retirement plan
- Paid time off and holidays
- Hands-on training and development
- Discounts on equipment rentals and purchases
