What are the responsibilities and job description for the Fireplace Service and installation Helper position at BLACK SWAN HEARTH COMPANY LLC?
Join the Black Swan Hearth & Home Team
Fireplace Service and Installation Helper
Are you mechanically inclined, dependable, and the kind of person who enjoys figuring out how things work?
Black Swan Hearth & Home is a family owned fireplace, stove, hearth, and outdoor living company serving Connecticut since 1979. We are looking for a hardworking Service and Installation Helper who wants to learn a skilled trade and build a long term career with our company.
You do not need fireplace industry experience. We will provide hands on training. What we cannot teach is a strong work ethic, a good attitude, common sense, and pride in doing a job properly.
This is not a job where you will stand around waiting to be told what to do. We are looking for someone who pays attention, asks questions, takes initiative, and becomes more capable with every job.

Our team installs, services, and maintains gas, wood, pellet, and electric fireplaces, inserts, and stoves. Projects can include everything from routine service and cleaning to venting, framing, fireplace installation, troubleshooting, removal, replacement, and finishing work.
Every day is different. You may spend one day helping install a new fireplace and the next assisting with service calls or learning how to diagnose a technical problem.
The right person will take pride in their work, care about the customer’s home, and want to learn how to complete a job from start to finish.

• Communicate respectfully and professionally with customers and coworkers.
• Take direction, ask questions, and gradually take on more responsibility as your skills grow.

• You are dependable and show up on time ready to work.
• You have a strong work ethic and are willing to put in a full day.
• You are mechanically inclined and enjoy solving problems.
• You pay attention to details and care about doing things correctly.
• You take initiative instead of waiting for someone to tell you every next step.
• You are willing to learn, accept feedback, and improve.
• You stay calm when a job becomes difficult or does not go exactly as planned.
• You work well with a team and are willing to help wherever needed.
• You respect customers, their homes, and their property.
• You take care of company vehicles, tools, and equipment.
• You are comfortable working indoors, outdoors, on ladders, and on roofs.
• Must be able to perform the essential physical functions of the position, including lifting and carrying heavy equipment, with or without reasonable accommodation.
• Experience in construction, HVAC, plumbing, electrical work, carpentry, roofing, appliance repair, automotive repair, or another mechanical trade is helpful, but not required.
This Position Is a Good Fit for Someone Who
• Wants to learn a skilled trade rather than work another temporary job.
• Enjoys working with their hands and seeing the finished result of their work.
• Likes learning how different systems operate.
