Master Craftsman

Description

Job summary:

Are you tired of bosses telling you to "just hurry up and get it done" when you know it should be done right? Are you sick of high-pressure sales and cutting corners with cheap materials?

We are looking for an experienced, highly skilled craftsman to join our team. We operate on one strict rule: Every decision is made based on what is best for the client. Period. Never what is easiest. Never what is most lucrative for us.

If you are a perfectionist with a strong moral compass who wants to be rewarded for doing great work, keep reading.

What we're looking for:

You are already skilled. We are looking for a veteran of the trades, not an apprentice. You should have deep, hands-on experience in residential repairs, carpentry, drywall, and general maintenance.

You are a perfectionist. "Good enough" isn't in your vocabulary. You take pride in your work and insist on using high-quality, long-lasting materials so the client never has to call us back for a failure.

You are autonomous. You don’t need to be micromanaged. You can look at a problem, devise the right solution, gather your materials, and execute flawlessly on your own.

You are ethical. You do the right thing when nobody is looking. You are honest with clients, transparent with your time, and operate with a high moral compass.

Pay structure:

We believe in sharing our success with the people who create it. You will be paid $35 per hour so you have financial peace of mind, plus a 15% profit-share structure. Your pay starts when you leave your driveway. Health insurance reimbursement up to $13,100 per year is available. Additionally, you will receive the maximum IRS mileage reimbursement for each given year for each mile driven to and from the job sites. Lastly, you will receive tool cost reimbursement.

When you run a job efficiently, autonomously, and the client is thrilled, you share in the profit of that job. No high-pressure sales quotas. No scammy upsells. Just a reward for being excellent at what you do.

Why work with us:

You will never be asked to compromise your integrity. You will have the freedom to take the time required to do the job perfectly. You will be treated as a respected partner, not just a tool in a truck.

How to apply:

Since attention to detail is critical for this job, please follow these exact steps to apply:

Reply to this ad with a brief email about your background and what trades you are most skilled in. (A formal resume is great, but a simple, honest email about your experience works too).

Include a photo or two of a project you are particularly proud of.

Put the word "CRAFTSMAN" in the subject line of your reply.

We look forward to meeting you.
