If you already know how to clean a kitchen exhaust system to bare metal, we want to pay you like a professional, not an hourly laborer.
Most companies in the kitchen exhaust cleaning industry pay experienced techs the same low hourly rate as new techs, so we built our pay structure around one idea: skilled techs should be paid for their expertise.
Here is how it works:
- $200-$300 per completed job, paid per job, not per hour.
- 1 to 2 jobs per night on a typical schedule
- Work efficiently and your effective hourly rate is double or triple the industry standard
- Steady volume: we have the contracts, we need the techs
- No trainees on this posting. You show up knowing the work, we hand you jobs. You will need to perform 2 test jobs.
