Build Something Extraordinary

Are you a skilled painting professional who takes pride in transforming spaces and leaving properties looking their absolute best? Are you ready to join a team that values The Power of Simplicity and Service? This isn't just another painting role—it's an opportunity to be part of a growing service company that makes property managers' lives easier while building lasting relationships through exceptional craftsmanship.

About Simple Services

We are a successful service company specializing in property maintenance for multifamily apartment communities, with a growing portfolio of services including painting, power washing, carpet cleaning, HVAC, plumbing, and pest control. Our reputation is built on our core values: The Power of Simplicity and Service. We don't just complete tasks—we remove stress for property managers and build lasting relationships through exceptional service.

The Opportunity

As our Painter, you’ll be on the front lines of a growing service line that’s gaining real momentum with multifamily property managers across DFW. You’ll work independently and alongside our team delivering interior and exterior painting and drywall repair services at apartment communities—and you’ll be rewarded based on what you produce. This role is built for someone who takes pride in their craft, shows up ready to work, and wants a clear path to grow as the service line grows around them.

Your Mission

You’ll deliver professional interior and exterior painting and drywall repair services that set the standard for quality and care at multifamily apartment properties. You’ll represent Simple Services on every job—working efficiently, communicating clearly, and making property managers’ lives easier by handling painting and repair needs from start to finish with zero drama.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Technical Excellence

• Interior & Exterior Mastery: Perform high-quality interior and exterior painting including walls, ceilings, trim, doors, common areas, building exteriors, breezeways, and stairwells at multifamily properties.
• Surface Preparation: Properly prepare surfaces through cleaning, sanding, patching, caulking, and priming to ensure paint adhesion and a flawless finish.
• Drywall & Sheetrock Repair: Perform professional repairs to walls and ceilings including tape, bed, and texture work—from small nail holes and scuffs to larger damage requiring patching or sheetrock replacement. Blend repaired areas seamlessly so the finished surface is indistinguishable from the original.
• Expert Assessment: Evaluate surfaces prior to painting to identify condition issues, recommend the correct products, and flag any repair needs before work begins.
• Color & Product Knowledge: Select appropriate paints, primers, and coatings based on surface type, environment, and property manager specifications.
• Equipment Mastery: Operate and maintain brushes, rollers, sprayers, ladders, scaffolding, and other painting equipment safely and efficiently.

Growth & Development

• Path to Lead: Demonstrate consistent quality, reliability, and professionalism, and you’ll be first in line as we build out the lead painter role—with expanded responsibility and compensation to match.
• Continuous Learning: Stay current with new painting techniques, products, and surface repair best practices through ongoing training and professional development supported by Simple Services.

Service Excellence

• Customer Communication: Clearly explain the scope of work to property managers and on-site staff, provide updates throughout the project, and confirm satisfaction upon completion.
• Documentation & Accountability: Maintain records of services performed, materials used, and time invested in each project for billing accuracy and quality assurance.
• Service Line Growth: Collaborate with leadership to refine processes, build service packages, and identify opportunities to expand painting services across our property management customer base.

Safety & Professional Development

• Safety Leadership: Adhere to all company safety policies, OSHA standards, and regulations while actively promoting a culture of safety on every job site.
• Continuous Learning: Stay current with new painting techniques, products, and best practices through ongoing training and professional development.

Success Metrics

• Customer Satisfaction: Consistently exceed property manager expectations—zero rework, all punch items cleared before leaving the job.
• Quality Assurance: Deliver clean, precise work with minimal touch-ups or callbacks.
• Career Progression: Consistently demonstrate the skills, reliability, and professionalism that open the door to the lead painter role.
• Revenue Growth: Contribute to service line expansion through excellent work and proactive relationship building with property managers.

Required Qualifications

Education & Experience

• Experience with brush, roller, and spray application techniques
• Familiarity with field management software (ServiceTitan experience a plus)
• OSHA 10 or equivalent safety certification a plus

Professional Qualities

• Exceptional eye for detail and commitment to a clean, professional finish
• Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills—property managers and residents will interact with you directly
• Strong time management skills and the ability to work independently across multiple job sites

Your Rewards

• Competitive Compensation: $24.00/hr base rate plus 5% commission on all work you complete—your output directly drives your paycheck.
• Clear Growth Path: This role is the starting point, not the ceiling. Prove yourself and you’ll have first consideration for the lead painter role—with a crew, more responsibility, and compensation to match.
• Supportive Environment: You’ll have experienced management behind you, established systems to work within, and a company reputation that opens doors with property managers before you even show up.
• Company Infrastructure: Leverage an established company brand, customer base, and operational support so you can focus on what you do best—painting.
• Advancement Potential: As our painting service line grows, so does your opportunity. High performers move into lead roles, take on more complex projects, and earn more—we promote from within.
• Shared Values: Join a team that genuinely believes in making customers' lives easier and doing things the right way, every time.

Our Values in Action: The Power of Simplicity and Service

Imagine this...

It's Monday morning, and property manager Carlos is staring at a freshly vacated unit. The walls are scuffed, the trim is chipped, and there's a bold accent wall the next tenant definitely won't love. He has a new lease starting in 9 days and a maintenance crew already stretched thin.

Here's where you come in.

Carlos calls Simple Services. He's not just looking for someone with a brush—he's looking for someone he can hand the problem to and forget about it.

Simplicity: Making Carlos's Day Easier

You show up on time, assess the unit quickly, and walk him through exactly what you’re going to do and when it’ll be done. You confirm the paint spec matches the property’s standard and get straight to work—prepping surfaces, cutting in ceilings, knocking out the drywall patch on the accent wall. No surprises. No back-and-forth. Just a clear plan and confident execution.

Two days later, Carlos does the walkthrough. Clean lines, no roller marks, trim crisp and fresh. He sends a text: "Unit's ready. You guys are solid."

That's not just a paint job. That's one less thing he had to manage this week. And that kind of service? That's what keeps him calling us, again and again.

Service: Going Beyond the Basics

While working in the unit, you walk the breezeway to drop off equipment and notice the exterior stairwell walls are faded and peeling—a detail that'll catch a property owner's eye during their next visit.

Before you leave, you mention it to Carlos: "The stairwell walls on Building C are starting to peel—I could put together a quick proposal if you want to get ahead of it before your owner walks the property."

Carlos pauses. "Actually, yeah. Can you send that over today?"

You do.

That’s the difference between someone who shows up and a professional who pays attention. That’s the team you’re joining. That’s the difference you’ll make.

When you commit to Simplicity and Service, you don't just paint walls—you become the painter that property managers count on.
