This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys hands-on work and wants to learn a skilled trade with opportunities for advancement.

- Represent GWC Restoration professionally when interacting with homeowners, property managers, adjusters, and other customers.
- Follow company safety procedures, PPE requirements, and job-site instructions.

Flexibility, communication, and reliability are essential for this position.
