Lead Tech- Water Damage Restoration — Renew By Grewe
Pay: $55,000 - $75,000 per year Job Type: Full-time Location: Woodbury, MN
We're Not Hiring for a Job. We're Hiring for a Career.
Most companies offer you a paycheck. We offer you a path.
At Renew By Grewe, Lead Tech is a step on a real four-rung career ladder — not a title we hand out, a role you grow into. Start as a Technician, prove yourself, and within your first 3 months you could be running jobs solo as a Lead Tech. Keep growing and the path continues: Senior Lead Tech in year two, Location Lead or Project Manager by year three — with six-figure earning potential.
This isn't a hypothetical. It's the same path our current techs are walking right now.
What You'll Do as a Lead Tech
- Run jobs solo with confidence, having built the skills and judgment to lead on-site
- Deliver high-quality work that reflects our standards and reputation
- Serve as the go-to person on the job, setting the tone for quality and professionalism
- Build the experience and track record that opens the door to Senior Lead Tech and beyond
The Path Doesn't Stop HereRoleTimelinePay

Lead Tech-Months-4-12$55K-$75K
Senior Lead Tech-Year 2-$75K-$99K
Location Lead / PM-Year 3+$100K-$120K+
Four rungs. Three years. A real ladder, not a ceiling.
What This Path Makes Possible
We've watched techs use this ladder to build the life they wanted — a real six-figure income, a house with a yard, vacations big enough to remember, and a title and team of their own. It starts with a single step: showing up ready to learn and work hard.
What We're Looking For
- Prior experience as a Technician (or equivalent hands-on field experience) not required
- A track record of reliability, coachability, and solid work quality
- Comfort working independently and taking ownership of a job site
- Drive to keep climbing — this role is a stepping stone, and we want people who want to move up
Why Renew By Grewe
- A documented career path with real pay growth, not vague "opportunities for advancement"
- Leadership that revisits and honors these pay bands every year
- A culture built around proving the path is real — because we hire for careers, not just shifts
