Commercial Journeyman Plumber Job Summary-Service and Repair

We are seeking an experienced, dependable Journeyman Plumber to join our growing service team.

Our work is primarily commercial plumbing service and repair, with some residential work and larger plumbing projects as needed. We are looking for a plumber who is comfortable troubleshooting problems, working independently, communicating with customers and the office, and taking responsibility for a job from diagnosis through completion.

This is not a position where someone will be standing over you throughout the day. You should be able to receive a service call or work order, evaluate the problem, develop a practical repair plan, communicate what is needed, and complete the work safely and efficiently.

At the same time, we don't expect anyone to know everything. We want someone who is experienced but still coachable and willing to learn. If there is an area where you need additional knowledge or experience, we are willing to help you develop it. We want our employees to become better plumbers while they are here and take on greater responsibility as their skills grow.

We value effort, reliability, communication, efficiency, quality workmanship, and continuous improvement.
