Paid | 6–14 Weeks | Owensboro, KY & Evansville, IN

Launch a real career in the skilled trades, not just a job. At Monarch Investment & Management Group, we don’t offer short‑term gigs, we build long‑term careers. Our Junior Maintenance Apprenticeship Program is designed for people who are serious about learning the skilled trades and want to turn hands‑on training into a future in multifamily maintenance. If you’re currently in a trade program, technical school, or certification track or recently completed one, this is your opportunity to step into real properties, real systems, and real responsibility alongside experienced professionals.

Why Monarch:

Monarch is one of the largest privately owned multifamily housing companies in the country, operating more than 80,000 apartments across 26 states. We do everything in‑house, maintenance, capital projects, property management, HVAC, roofing, rehab, painting, accounting, training, and more. That means you won’t be standing on the sidelines but you’ll be learning from the teams who actually run and maintain our communities.

This is not classroom learning or just watching another but real‑world, boots‑on‑the‑ground experience in live communities.

• Currently enrolled in or recently completed a trade program, technical school, certification, or degree program
• High school students with a strong interest in the trades will be considered
• Interested in HVAC, building maintenance, or skilled trades
