Learn the Business in the Field

• Perform window cleaning, pressure washing, gutter cleaning, window tinting, and holiday-light installation
• Safely use ladders, tools, vehicles, and professional equipment
• Learn our quality, safety, and customer-service standards

Lead the Team

Who We’re Looking For

This is not an entry‑level management opportunity. Strong candidates will have:

• Current or recent leadership experience in restaurant management, hospitality, retail management, or home services
• Experience supervising employees and holding a team accountable
• A strong work ethic and willingness to lead from the front
• Confidence communicating with customers and employees
• The ability to stay organized in a fast‑moving environment
• Comfort working outdoors, performing physical work, and using ladders
• A valid driver’s license and dependable transportation
• Interest in building a long‑term management career
• Willingness to consider future relocation for advancement

Experience in window cleaning or pressure washing is not required. We can teach the technical work. We are looking for someone who already understands responsibility, urgency, customer service, and team leadership.

This Role May Be a Great Fit If You Are:

• A restaurant manager ready to leave nights, weekends, and the food‑service grind
• An assistant manager who wants a clearer path to running an operation
• A home‑services crew leader or field supervisor looking for advancement
• A hands‑on leader who doesn’t want to spend the entire day behind a desk
• Interested in helping recruit, train, develop, and retain a high‑performing team

This Role Is Not For You If:

• You want a management title without first learning the work
• You are uncomfortable holding employees accountable
• You are unwilling to work outdoors or climb ladders
• You are looking only for a short‑term job
• You are not open to future relocation opportunities

Ready to Build Your Next Career?

If you have management experience and want to develop into an Operations Manager within a growing home‑services company, you are invited to explore this opportunity.
