Project work at our sites across Manhattan.

What you'll do

You're our floor specialist: strip and wax, scrub and recoat, burnishing, carpet extraction, gym floors, and tile and grout. You work a schedule of projects across our schools, offices, medical sites and gyms with our equipment, often with a helper. You photograph every job before and after so the client signs off the first time.

What we offer

• $20.00/hour to start, up to $22.00 for experienced techs
• Overtime on long project nights
• Year-round work. Floor projects don't stop in winter.
• Our machines, pads and chemicals
• Paid sick days, and paid time off for full-time employees
• 401(k) with company match
• $100 after your first 30 days when you finish your required training, have no no-call/no-shows or unexcused absences, and are still with us in good standing on payout day. Approved sick time never counts against you.
• A chance to train our cleaners and lead floor care as we grow

What you need

• Hands-on floor care experience: strip and wax, burnisher, auto-scrubber, carpet extractor. The interview includes a short hands-on test.
• A valid driver's license
• Able to lift up to 75 lbs and run floor machines for a full shift
• Available evenings, overnights and weekends
• English or Spanish is fine. You need to be able to read chemical labels and job sheets.
• 18 or older and authorized to work in the U.S.

Our values (we hire for these)

• Integrity: Do the right thing, even when no one is watching.
• Respect: Treat clients, their staff and your teammates with respect.
• Service: Put the client first and act with care.
• Ownership: Take responsibility and follow through.
• Teamwork: Support each other and communicate.
• High standards: Don't settle for "good enough."

What we expect from everyone

• Be on time, every shift. If you can't make it, tell your supervisor as soon as you know. A no-call/no-show is the fastest way to lose this job.
• Clock in and out on our app every shift. That's how you get paid correctly.
• Follow the site checklist every time, whether or not anyone is checking.
• Fix anything that's flagged right away. When your supervisor or the client points something out, take care of it that shift and confirm it's done.
• Report problems the same day: something broken, supplies running low, a client request. Send it as a message in the app.
• Respect the client's people and property. Be polite, keep the site secure, and keep what you see at medical and office sites private.
• Work safely. Use approved chemicals and protective gear, put out wet-floor signs, and use step ladders the safe way.

This job isn't for you if...

• You often call out at the last minute or don't show up
• You don't want to follow a checklist or safety rules
• You cut corners or settle for "good enough"
• You're not comfortable using a phone app to clock in
• You don't take feedback well
