Job description

Why Housecall Pro?

Help us build solutions that build better lives. At Housecall Pro, we show up to work every day to make a difference for real people: the home service professionals that support America’s 100 million homes. We’re all about the Pro, and dedicate our days to helping them streamline operations, scale their businesses, and—ultimately—save time so they can be with their families and live well.

While our headquarters are based in Denver, Colorado, our team spans the globe, with teammates across Brazil, Poland, the Philippines, Mexico, and beyond. We care deeply about our customers and foster a culture where our company, people and Pros grow and succeed together—no matter where they’re based. Leadership is as focused on growing team members’ careers as they expect their teams to be on creating solutions for Pros.

Why Business Coaching?

Pros spend years in the trades, perfecting their skills “turning the wrench.”  Some make the decision to be their own boss, and then quickly realize that running a business is hard, and a completely different skillset they have yet to master. Business Coaching by Housecall Pro helps solve this problem by teaching Pros how to run a successful business, while maintaining a work-life balance.

We also offer:

  • A generous benefits program that supports the whole you with medical, dental, vision, life, disability, and 401(k)
  • Paid holidays and flexible, take-it-as-you-need-it paid time off
  • Monthly tech reimbursements
  • A culture built on innovation that values big ideas, no matter where they come from
