Apprentice Handyman / Craftsman Trainee – Fast Advancement Opportunity
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.
Your Skills Can Move You Up Quickly
This position does not have to stay at apprentice-level pay for long.
If your skills start to shine, you learn quickly, produce quality work, and develop the customer-service skills needed to represent Ace Handyman Services Montclair on your own, there is an opportunity for rapid advancement and significantly higher earning potential.
Our goal is to develop you into an independent Craftsman who can confidently complete customer projects on your own. How quickly you get there will depend largely on you—your ability, attitude, workmanship, reliability, and customer service.
If you're talented and motivated, we want to recognize it and reward it.
Ace Handyman Services Montclair is looking for an Apprentice Craftsman to work alongside experienced professionals. You'll learn directly from experienced craftsmen while working in customers' homes and developing the skills needed to build a successful career in the skilled trades.
You'll Gain Hands-On Experience In:
- Carpentry
- Drywall installation and repair
- Painting
- Door installation and repair
- Trim and finish work
- Basic plumbing
- Basic electrical
- Fixture installation
- Furniture and cabinet assembly
- General home repairs and 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
- Is comfortable communicating with customers
- Understands that great customer service is just as important as great workmanship
- Wants to build a long-term career in the skilled trades
- Has experience working with tools or completing projects independently; professional experience is a plus, but not required
- Has a valid driver's license and reliable transportation
What We Offer:
- $18.00/hour starting pay
- Paid, hands-on training alongside experienced craftsmen
- Opportunity for rapid advancement based on demonstrated ability and performance
- Increased earning potential as you develop into an independent Craftsman
- A clear path for continued professional growth
- A professional and supportive team environment
- Medical, dental, and vision benefits eligibility after 90 days
- Accrued paid time off
- The opportunity to build a long-term career with a respected national brand backed by Ace Hardware
We're not looking for someone who's just searching for their next job.
We're looking for someone who wants to learn a trade, develop real skills, become an exceptional Craftsman, and earn more as their capabilities grow.
Starting at $18/hour doesn't mean staying at $18/hour. Show us what you can do, develop the skills to take care of our customers independently, and there is real opportunity to move up.
If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Tell us a little about yourself, your experience working with your hands, and why you're interested in developing a career in the trades.
We hire for attitude, work ethic, customer service, and potential just as much as experience.
