At Commercial Kitchen Ventilation, we build high-performance exhaust systems for restaurants, hospitals, schools, and commercial kitchens across the region. Our installs keep people safe, kitchens compliant, and operations running strong.

We're a small, fast-moving team that runs lean and expects everyone to bring value. No hand-holding. No room for slackers. If you're mechanically inclined, eager to get better, and ready to show up with purpose, you'll fit in here.

Position Summary:

We're hiring a Level 1 Sheet Metal Mechanic to work under experienced foremen and learn the ropes on real job sites. You'll install kitchen exhaust hoods, duct, fans, and rooftop systems — not sweep floors or run for coffee.

We don't care if you came from the military or the shop floor — as long as you're dependable, teachable, and ready to hustle.

What You'll Do:

• Install kitchen hoods, ductwork, fans, curbs, and support gear
• Measure, cut, and fit sheet metal components
• Work on rooftops, ladders, and lifts — safely and efficiently
• Read simple job specs, follow directions, and get faster every week
• Handle your tools, prep your work, and back up your crew
• Learn the code, the craft, and the standard we expect

What You'll Bring:

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Valid driver's license (non-negotiable)
• 0–2 years of experience in HVAC, mechanical, welding, or construction
• Strong work ethic, willingness to learn, and ability to take direction
• Physically ready to lift, climb, and stay on your feet all day

Pay & Benefits:

• Starting Pay: $21.00 – $25.00/hour (based on skill, attitude, and reliability)
• Health Insurance and Retirement Plan
• Paid Holidays and PTO
• On-the-job training with clear advancement path
• Small team. High trust. No fluff.

Physical Requirements & Work Environment:

This is field work. You'll lift 50+ lbs, climb ladders, work in heat or tight spaces, and stay moving. You'll use hand and power tools and be expected to work smart, safe, and hard — every day.

This Is How You Level Up

If you're dependable, hands-on, and tired of watching other people get ahead — this is your shot. We'll show you how to build systems that matter. You've just got to bring the drive. Apply now and earn your spot!

Commercial Kitchen Ventilation is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We hire based on mindset, drive, and work ethic. Veterans, tradespeople, and career starters are all encouraged to apply.
