Join Student Works Window Cleaning

As a student, the work is summer based and aligns with your need to work between university or college terms.

Our Process

Mission Statement

To provide students with an excellent learning and earning experience that will benefit them through their lives at the same time as providing clients with a quality of service that is second to none in the home service cleaning industry.

Technician

Both rookie and veteran painters are needed to be a part of our successful student painting teams. You’ll get a suntan, stay in shape and make money. Usually compensation works out to anywhere between minimum wage and $20.00 plus.

You can increase your effective wage rate through taking advantage of the SWP piece rate system. Ask your potential Owner / Operator for more details. Weather permitting, we use a 40 hour work week.

You will learn many valuable skills including:

  • Client relations
  • Time management
  • Problem solving skills

To apply for a painter position, please complete the online Summer Application Form.

Crew Lead

Crew Leaders provide basic leadership and are the on-the-job supervisors.

Compensation is typically better than that of a painter. Access to a vehicle and painting experience are essential. You’ll be the front line between the manager and the client.

To apply for a crew chief position, complete the online Summer Application Form.

Note to Painters and Crew Chiefs:
No experience is necessary for exterior or interior painting positions (various levels of training are involved).

Operator

As an Owner / Operator, you will gain valuable experience on operating your own business following a tried and true method developed by Student Works Window Cleaning. You will be exposed to all aspects of running a business including; recruiting, market, selling and managing paint jobs. This level of participation requires a higher level of commitment on your part. More details on Running Your Own Business.
