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
