READ CAREFULLY BEFORE APPLYING — TESTING IS IN MINNESOTA, BUT THE JOB IS ON THE ROAD!
D&V Pro Cleaning is hiring full-time Interstate Traveling Kitchen Hood Technicians. If you already know how to clean a kitchen exhaust system to bare metal, we want to pay you like a professional, not an hourly laborer.
Most companies in the kitchen exhaust cleaning industry pay experienced techs the same low hourly rate as new techs, so we built our pay structure around one idea: skilled techs should be paid for their expertise.
Here is how it works:
- Starting at $200 per completed job, paid per job, not per hour.
- You must have experience with kitchen hood cleaning.
- You must be able to travel 4-6 weeks at a time, this is an interstate traveling position
- 1 to 2 jobs per night on a typical schedule
- Work efficiently and your effective hourly rate is double or triple the industry standard
- Steady volume: we have the contracts, we need the techs
- No trainees on this posting. You show up knowing the work, we hand you jobs.
This posting is for experienced hood cleaners only. If you have never professionally cleaned a kitchen exhaust system, please do not apply to this listing.
