We're hiring
Think big cities already have all the handymen they need? Think again. A door that sticks, caulking that's giving out, a shelf to put up: to a big contractor, it's "too small." To the homeowner, it's an irritation that drags on for months.
Those are exactly the requests Beau-frère à louer exists for. And to handle them, we're looking for handy, reliable people in Greater Montréal, Gatineau and Québec City.
Why we need people
Beau-frère à louer has served more than 2,500 clients over the past three years, with a 4.4-star rating on more than 350 Google reviews. Those clients come back, tell others about us, and many trust us with their home for the long haul through the Club Beau-frère à louer: an inspection, a preventive maintenance plan, and a team that does the work at the right time, before something breaks.
Keeping that promise takes faces members recognize, available when they're needed. That's why we hire people with a steady schedule, rather than relying on whoever happens to be available.
What's changed on our end
You may have read here before that we were looking for entrepreneurs to open territories. That's no longer our model. Today, Beau-frère à louer hires: you join a team, with a call centre that takes requests and prepares your appointments, and an app where you create your quote and invoice on site. No need to invest or start your own business.
And if you already have your own company in a trade we don't offer (electrical, plumbing, roofing…), there's a place for you too: become a network partner.
Four ways to join us
- Handyman: you fix things, we take care of the clients. $26/h, 35 paid hours every week, guaranteed from day one, daytime, Monday to Friday. See the job
- Residential Maintenance Lead: a role for graduates and final-year students of the Diploma of Vocational Studies (DVS) in General Building Maintenance. You handle maintenance work at the homes of the members in your portfolio, inspect their homes, build their maintenance plan and make sure it's followed. $28.50/h as a lead, possible after 6 months. See the job
- Handyman Pro: for experienced tradespeople. You manage your own schedule and quotes, and a team sends you the clients. $50,000 to $80,000 a year, with earnings tied directly to your work, and group insurance 50% paid by the employer after 3 months. See the job
- Trade Specialist: painter, carpenter-joiner or refrigeration mechanic? Our divisions PatchNPaint (painting), Cabanon-Remise A9 (sheds) and Koomfo (air conditioning) are looking for tradespeople. Terms depend on your trade and experience, with group insurance 50% paid by the employer after 3 months; for air conditioning, a refrigeration mechanic certificate is required. See the jobs
Every job has its own terms, spelled out in black and white on its page. What applies to one doesn't necessarily apply to another.
