Handyperson / General Labor (Part-Time)

Job Overview:

Help With Handywork, a growing handyman and property care service in Bellingham, is looking for a part-time Handyman or Handywoman to join our team. I’m the owner/operator and, so far, have been doing most of the work on my own and using temporary labor when necessary. However, I have a lot renovation work coming up and I’m looking for someone who can work between 20-35 hours/week. This position has the potential to grow into full time and the rate is negotiable based on your skill and experience.

For candidates with less experience, but enthusiasm to learn, rates range from $18-$22hr. For those candidates with more experience and who can work on your own with minimal supervision, I’ll consider rates in the $30/hr. range.

If you’re interested in working for a small company to grow with as we ramp up, this may be the job for you. And if you’re more experienced, but not looking for long-term employment, we encourage you to apply, as well. We always appreciate working with others we can learn from, so if you’re skilled and searching for short-term work, we may be able to accommodate that, too.
