This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working outdoors, staying active, working with their hands, and wants to make excellent money during the holiday season.

Installer:
$27.50/hour to start
$30/hour after 90 days

During the busy Christmas season, installers can expect:
Approximately 4 hours of work on select days during the week
Approximately 8-10 hours per day on weekends
Schedules may change depending on weather, customer schedules, project needs, and workload
Because installation schedules can change, applicants must have some flexibility with their schedules and be willing to adjust when necessary.

Can lift 75–100 lbs

Lead installers will be responsible for helping manage installation crews, maintaining quality and safety standards, communicating with the office, and making sure jobs are completed efficiently.
Candidates with their own truck, ladders, and installation equipment are strongly preferred for lead positions.

📍 LOCATION
San Diego County
Applicants must have reliable transportation to our warehouse and be able to travel to customer properties throughout San Diego County.

📈 OPPORTUNITY
This is an excellent seasonal opportunity with the potential for additional work throughout the year as permanent lighting projects become available.

We are hiring 4 people, so apply soon.

📩 HOW TO APPLY
Please reply to this Craigslist posting with:
Your name
Phone number
Brief description of your previous work experience
Any experience with Christmas lights, roofing, gutters, construction, ladders, or permanent lighting

Do not apply if you have a fear of heights, you are careless, you are on drugs, you are always late, you have physical disabilities, you are working with a direct competitor, you are lazy, etc.
