Holiday Lighting Installation Technician Seasonal Position: October–January

Opportunity for Year-Round Employment

We are looking for dependable, hardworking people to join our team as Holiday Lighting Installation Technicians for the upcoming holiday season.

You’ll work as part of a crew installing, servicing, and removing professional holiday lighting displays at residential and commercial properties. This is an active, outdoor, hands‑on position that is a great fit for someone who enjoys working with a team, takes pride in their work, and doesn’t want to spend the day sitting behind a desk.

Our holiday lighting season generally runs from October through January. For strong team members, there may be opportunities to continue working with us year‑round as we expand into permanent outdoor lighting and through positions with our established pest control business.

Schedule / Expected Work Hours

• Seasonal work from approximately October through January
• Primarily daytime hours
• Weekend availability is preferred, especially during the busiest part of the season
• Scheduling can be flexible depending on availability
• Hours may vary based on weather, customer schedules, and seasonal demand

What You'll Do

• Install professional holiday lighting and decorations on homes and commercial properties
• Install lighting on rooflines, trees, shrubs, landscaping, and other structures
• Safely use ladders, lifts, and installation equipment
• Make sure displays are installed neatly, securely, and safely
• Troubleshoot and correct lighting or connection issues
• Return to customer properties when service or repairs are needed
• Remove holiday lighting and decorations after the season
• Organize, label, and properly store lighting and equipment
• Maintain clean and organized trucks, equipment, and work areas
• Communicate professionally and courteously with customers
• Work closely with other crew members to complete installations safely and efficiently
• Follow company safety procedures at all times

What We're Looking For

• Dependable and able to show up on time and ready to work
• Reliable transportation to and from work
• Comfortable working outdoors in fall and winter weather
• Comfortable working on ladders and at heights
• Physically able to perform an active job, including lifting up to 50 lbs.
• Strong attention to detail and pride in doing quality work
• Ability to follow instructions and work effectively as part of a team
• Good problem‑solving skills
• Professional and respectful when interacting with customers
• Previous experience in holiday lighting, landscaping, roofing, construction, electrical work, pest control, or another hands‑on trade is helpful, but not required for the right candidate

Opportunity Beyond the Holiday Season

This position starts as seasonal employment, but we are interested in finding people who may want to grow with us.

We plan to expand our lighting business to include permanent outdoor lighting, creating additional opportunities beyond the traditional holiday season. Strong employees may also have opportunities to transition into our year‑round pest control operation.

If you're reliable, willing to learn, and take pride in your work, this could become much more than a seasonal job.

About Us

We are a locally owned and family‑operated company serving homeowners and businesses in our community.

We take pride in creating professional holiday displays that make our customers' homes and businesses look incredible while providing friendly, dependable service from start to finish.

If you enjoy working outdoors, working with your hands, and seeing the results of your work at the end of every day, we'd love to hear from you.
