The office staff manages the nuisances for you: the marketing, scheduling, insurance, licensing, administrative paperwork, etc.

  • clean background (no felonies)
  • drug-free
  • clean driving record and Virginia drivers license
  • be legal to work in the U.S.
  • professional appearance and personality
  • live in the Richmond metro area to be allowed to take our company van home

We offer a MUCH higher level of benefits than most contractors due to our international affiliations: Health Insurance, Vision, Dental, Life Insurance, Retirement plan, Paid Vacation, Paid Holidays, Company Vehicle, Uniforms, Competitive Pay

Compensation: $18-$28/hour plus full benefits
