A Seminole county based water well drilling company is seeking 1-2 full-time employees ASAP, specifically looking for an experienced well driller with welding experience. The job involves drilling large diameter water wells and requires physical strength and reliable transportation.
At roughly $28/hr, this posting sits about 10% above the $25/hr median for welding jobs across Florida — toward the top of a $22–$30/hr middle band drawn from 106 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 58% of the comparable postings we have wage data for. Pay that far above local median usually comes attached to something: a harder cert requirement, travel, night shift, or overtime that isn't really optional. Worth establishing which before you accept.
