Are you a skilled trades professional who enjoys leading by example, working with your hands, and seeing a job done right? We’re looking for a Service Team Lead to head up a two-person crew focused on gutters, roof rejuvenation, and small exterior repairs.

 

This is a leadership role in the field — you’ll be responsible for quality workmanship, customer satisfaction, and mentoring a laborer while delivering clean, professional installs and repairs.

 

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead a two-person service crew (you + one laborer)
  • Install and service gutters and gutter protection systems
  • Perform roof rejuvenation applications
  • Complete small exterior repairs efficiently and correctly
  • Ensure jobs are completed safely, cleanly, and to company standards
  • Communicate clearly with customers and internal teams
  • Train and support your laborer to improve skills and productivity
  • Maintain tools, equipment, and vehicles in good working order

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience with gutters, roofing, or exterior construction
  • Proven ability to lead or mentor another team member
  • Strong attention to detail and pride in quality work
  • Ability to manage daily job flow and adapt to changing schedules
  • Professional communication and customer-first mindset
  • Valid driver’s license and ability to lift/maneuver materials as needed

Why You’ll Love This Role

  • Leadership without being stuck behind a desk
  • Consistent work with variety — no two days are the same
  • Opportunity to help build and shape a growing service team
  • Supportive management and clear expectations
  • Competitive pay 
  • Steady year-round work

Who We Are

We focus on quality, safety, and clear communication, and we back our crews with strong leadership and realistic expectations. If you take pride in your craft and want to be part of a company that values teamwork and doing things right, you’ll fit in well here.
