About HandiMaidsHandiMaids has proudly served the Richmond area since 1983. We are a long-standing, family-owned company with deep roots in the community. Our focus is simple: take great care of our people so they can take great care of our clients. We believe in clear expectations, fair pay, and treating one another with respect. This is a workplace where team members are known, supported, and valued. We are growing, and we are looking to add a new technician to the team.

About the Role:- This is a full-time, daytime residential cleaning position with a steady, predictable schedule.
- Your core schedule is Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm, with your evenings free
- No required weekends. When optional weekend jobs come up, such as short-notice cleans and vacation rental turnovers, they pay time and a half (1.5x) and you can take them or pass.
- If picking up an occasional weekend shift at a premium rate appeals to you, let us know. If you prefer a strict Monday-through-Friday schedule, that works too.
- This role includes a paid training and mentorship period, fully paid at your base rate. Your pay grows from there as you build consistent hours and prove yourself.
How We Train YouWe train differently than most cleaning companies, and it shows. Your training is fully paid, and instead of being left to figure it out alone, you are supported by the whole team. Our crew will tell you it is one of the best parts of working here, and it is a big reason our team is so strong and our work stays so consistent.
We are also looking for people we can grow into Lead roles, which come with additional pay. If you are reliable, coachable, and want to advance, we want to hear from you.
What You Will Be Doing:
You will clean and care for our clients' homes using a consistent system, with training and support from our team.
Typical duties include:- Cleaning kitchens and bathrooms (sinks, counters, toilets, tubs/showers, mirrors)
- Dusting and wiping surfaces (furniture, doors, light touchpoints, baseboards as needed)
- Vacuuming and mopping floors
- Making beds and tidying common areas
- Taking out trash and replacing liners as needed
- Restocking and maintaining your cleaning kit and supplies
- Following our checklist process to ensure quality and consistency
- Communicating professionally with the office and, when needed, clients
Most of our work is residential recurring cleans and occasional deep cleans, with additional earning opportunities for certified services. We also serve a small number of light commercial clients, such as doctor offices. These are held to the same high-end standard as our home cleans and are not janitorial work. If that kind of work interests you, it can be an option down the road.
What You Will Earn$17/hour to start, with most full-time technicians earning $19 to $21/hour plus tips within their first 6 months
