We’re looking for a sharp, tech-savvy, motivated young professional to work directly alongside our painting company owner. This is a hands-on, fast-paced role where you’ll act as the owner’s right-hand—riding along daily to client meetings, job sites, and supplier runs.

You’ll gain real-world experience in estimating, operations, project management, and running a growing construction business. This is not a desk job—you’ll be in the field, in the truck, and in the middle of everything.

  • Visit active job sites to monitor progress and quality
  • Take detailed notes during client meetings and:
  • Enter Scope of Work (SOW) into our estimating software
  • Help schedule painting crews and coordinate with subcontractors/trades
  • Pick up and organize materials and supplies from vendors (paint stores, Home Depot, etc.)
  • Photograph job sites and:
  • Organize and manage photos in our digital system
  • Assist with company social media updates (project highlights, before/after content)
  • Support general office and administrative needs
  • Work remotely from the truck (laptop provided) while being driven around

Who You Are

  • Tech-savvy and comfortable with laptops, apps, and software
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail
  • A quick learner who can take direction and execute
  • Professional, punctual, and reliable
  • Comfortable interacting with homeowners and team members
  • Able to multitask and adapt in a fast-moving environment
  • Interested in construction, business, or project management

Requirements

  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation to meet David in San Marcos
  • Strong communication skills
  • Basic computer proficiency (Google Sheets, Workspace, Office 365, Word, photos, etc.)
  • Ability to work full days in the field (riding along in company vehicle)

Why This Role is Unique

  • Direct mentorship from a business owner
  • Learn estimating, operations, and client management firsthand
  • Opportunity for rapid growth within the company
  • Gain valuable experience that can translate into future leadership roles
