Full Job Description

Experienced Residential Painter — White Oak Painting (Burlington & SE Iowa)

This job isn't for everyone. If it's for you, you'll know it by the end of this page.

Most job ads hand you a list of requirements. This one is going to describe a person — because we hire for who you are first, and we'll build on the rest.

You take pride in doing things right. Not because someone's watching, but because you'd know if you didn't. When you finish a room, you step back and actually look at it — the clean cut-in, the caught drip, the corner nobody inspects. "Good enough" doesn't sit well with you.

You show up when you say you will. Your word means something.

And you actually care about the people whose homes you're in. Making a space feel new again is work you can be proud of — and you treat a client's house like it's your own.

If that's you, keep reading.

Who We Are

White Oak Painting is a family-run residential painting company based in Burlington, serving homeowners across southeast Iowa. We've built our name on craftsmanship, clear communication, and treating every home like it's our mom's and every client like a friend.

We don't just hire painters. We hire people who fit. These are the four values we hold each other to — and they're not words on a wall, they're how we work every day:

We Own It. All of It. No excuses, no blame. When something's wrong, we make it right — whether we caused it or not.
We Win Together. We share what we know, cover each other on the hard days, and rise as a team.
We Sweat the Details. Excellence is the job description. The homeowner can't always see the difference. We always can.
We Care Like It's Personal. The care we show is real, and the client experience is the product.

What You'll Do:

Deliver high-quality interior and exterior residential painting with real precision
Prep job sites and communicate clearly and professionally with homeowners
Work alongside a tight crew that holds a high standard — and grow toward leading one
Take ownership of your work and represent White Oak in people's homes

We're hiring an experienced painter on a lead track. You don't have to lead a crew on day one — but if running a small team is where you want to go, we'll build that path with you.

What You'll Get:

Full-time, year-round employment — no seasonal layoffs, no guessing about your hours
Starting pay: $24–$28/hour, with a clear and structured path to $30/hr+
Transparent pay progression — you'll always know exactly what you need to do toearn more
A real career path: Painter → Senior Painter → Crew Lead → Management
Hands-on training from an experienced team that genuinely wants to see you succeed
A culture where your time, effort, and work are respected — every day

What We're Looking For:

Who We're Looking For
Experience in high-quality residential painting
Someone who takes pride in doing things right, not just getting them done
Genuine pride in craftsmanship and a sharp eye for detail
Someone who genuinely enjoys being of service to others
Someone eager to learn, open to feedback, and committed to improving
Someone reliable — you show up on time, ready to work, every time
Someone coachable, ambitious, and glad to be of service to people
A valid driver's licence (required — we travel to job sites across SE Iowa)
Comfortable with a smartphone and open to using technology (and AI) on the job

How to Apply

Send a short email — a few paragraphs is perfect — to [email protected]
Tell us:
1. A little about yourself and your background.
2. Why you're drawn to working with your hands and doing skilled trade work
3. Please explain any painting experience you might have.
4. Most importantly: Tell us about a time you went above and beyond for someone — at work, at home, or in your community — when you didn't have to, but you did it anyway. That answer matters to us more than anything else you could send.
5. What's the best phone number to reach you?

One Last Thing...

Because we want to make sure you actually read this whole ad — and didn't just skim it — please include the phrase "Oak Strong" somewhere in your message. It's a small thing, but it tells us a lot about how you approach what you're asked to do.
