Apprentice Handyman / Craftsman Trainee

Ace Handyman Services Montclair

Do you enjoy building, fixing, and figuring out how things work? Are you the person your friends and family call when something needs to be repaired?

If you're ambitious, mechanically inclined, and looking for a career—not just another job—we want to meet you.

Ace Handyman Services Montclair is looking for an Apprentice Craftsman to work alongside experienced professionals. You'll learn from experienced craftsmen while working in customers' homes and developing the skills needed to build a successful career in the skilled trades.

This is a hands-on learning opportunity where you'll gain experience in:

  • Carpentry
  • Drywall repair
  • Painting
  • Door and window repairs
  • Basic plumbing
  • Basic electrical
  • Fixture installations
  • General home maintenance
  • And much more

We're Looking For Someone Who

  • Is naturally good with their hands
  • Loves learning new skills
  • Has a strong work ethic and positive attitude
  • Is dependable and shows up on time
  • Takes pride in doing quality work
  • Wants to build a long-term career in the skilled trades
  • Has experience working with tools or doing projects on their own (professional experience is a plus, but not required)
  • Has a valid driver's license and reliable transportation

What We Offer

  • Paid, hands-on training with experienced craftsmen
  • A clear path for advancement as your skills grow
  • A professional, supportive team environment
  • The opportunity to build a long-term career with a respected national brand backed by Ace Hardware
  • Full-time opportunities for the right candidate, including medical benefits, paid time off, and more

We're not looking for someone who's just searching for a job. We're looking for someone who wants to learn a trade, develop real skills, and become an exceptional craftsman.

Compensation

  • Starting pay: $20.00 per hour
  • Full-time employees are eligible for medical benefits, paid time off, and additional company benefits.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Tell us a little about yourself, your experience, and why you're interested in learning the trade. We hire for attitude, work ethic, and potential just as much as experience.

Compensation: $20.00 per hour

The 800 Craftsmen who represent our Brand are the heart and soul of our turn-key, white-glove home repair, maintenance, and improvement service. They are skilled and experienced in many trades, but their professionalism and attention to detail is what sets them apart from others who work in the industry.

Most of the projects completed are for Repeat and Referral Customers—folks truly appreciate our high level of service, and they often request additional work by asking for particular Craftsmen by name. If you take great pride in your skills and abilities and wish to join a proven, winning TEAM, please apply to the position(s) available by selecting "Show Me All Jobs" above.

Ace Handyman Services is a franchise network of Independently Owned and Operated Franchises. Your application will go directly to the franchise owner, and all hiring decisions will be made by the management of that franchise. All inquiries about employment at this franchise should be made directly to the franchise owner, and not to Ace Handyman Services Corporate.

Ace Handyman Services Craftsmen are empowered and given much more flexibility than others in our industry. For example, they are in charge of their own job sites, and given the freedom to interact directly with Homeowners and Property Managers to suggest work that will improve safety, preserve their largest investment, and truly help them to love their homes and commercial buildings.

Ace Handyman Services’ work itself is often indoors in temperature-controlled environments, and is primarily of lighter-duty than new construction projects. There are Franchise Owners and Office Managers to assist with the day-to-day operations and administrative side of the business allowing our Craftsmen to focus on the tasks at-hand and provide our customers with professional services that delight our customers. Our Franchise Owners are successful, business-savvy individuals, who are ethical and treat their Staff like Family. The safety and well-being of TEAM members is a top priority. Many of our Craftsmen are former business owners themselves and after working for an Ace Handyman Services local office, even for a short time, they have no desire to be out on their own or operating their small businesses any longer.

Salary : $20
