START AT $18/HOUR — BUILD A CAREER, NOT JUST A JOB

SERVPRO Team Fletcher is hiring Full-Time Water & Fire Restoration Technicians.

If you're looking for more than another minimum wage job, this could be the start of a career. You don't need years of restoration experience to get started. We provide online training, hands-on field training, and real-world experience to help you learn a skilled trade, take on greater responsibility, and advance.

Start at $18/hour. Build your skills. Earn more responsibility. Advance your career.

MORE THAN A 40-HOUR, $18/HOUR JOB

Our rotating on-call schedule can provide additional hours and overtime. Overtime is based on business and customer needs and is not guaranteed every week.
