Ceiling Technician -- Cleaning & Carpentry Technician

Indianapolis, IN โ€ข On-site

Full-time

Re-posted 17 days ago


Key responsibilities

  • Install, repair, and replace acoustic ceiling tiles and suspended grid systems, including layout, hanger wire, mains, cross tees, perimeter trim, and tile

  • Perform ceiling cleaning and high dusting in commercial and industrial spaces

  • Work from ladders, scaffolds, and power lift equipment to complete ceiling installation and maintenance tasks


Job description

Put Your Ceiling Experience to Work

We're looking for a technician with hands-on experience installing drop ceiling grid systems, accoustic ceiling panels and ceiling cleaning to join our ceiling service team. You'll lead  drop ceiling installs, acoustic ceiling installs, repairs, and tile replacement in commercial and industrial buildings across central Indiana — plus ceiling cleaning and high dusting work between installs, so the hours stay steady year-round.

If you know your way around a grid layout, can hang wire and set mains and tees cleanly, and take pride in a ceiling that's square and level, we want to talk to you.

What You'll Do
  • Install, repair, and replace acoustic ceiling tiles and suspended grid systems — layout, hanger wire, mains, cross tees, perimeter trim, and tile
  • Work from ladders, scaffolds, and power lift equipment
  • Perform ceiling cleaning and high dusting in commercial and industrial spaces, leaving surfaces dust-free and sanitized
  • Walk job sites to assess material needs, spot safety hazards, and plan an efficient workflow
  • Work alongside the crew to finish projects on time and on budget
  • Follow all safety protocols, including proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • Pitch in on general maintenance tasks that keep job sites running smoothly
What We're Looking For
  • Proven experience installing suspended/drop ceiling grid systems — you can read a reflected ceiling plan, lay out a room, and deliver a level, square grid
  • Comfortable working at heights on ladders, scaffolds, and lifts
  • Physically able to stand, reach overhead, and lift up to [50] lbs for extended periods
  • Dependable, punctual, and detail-oriented — our clients notice the difference
  • Able to work both day and night shifts (schedule varies by project; you'll know your schedule in advance)
  • Reliable transportation to job sites; valid driver's license a plus
  • Lift certification or scaffold experience a plus
What We Offer
  • Steady, varied work — installs, repairs, and restoration work across different sites, so you're not dependent on one type of job
  • Pay that reflects your experience — starting rate based on the skills you bring, with increases as you take on more responsibility
  • Room to grow — opportunities to advance into lead roles as we grow as well as increase skillsets. 
  • A solid crew — a supportive team that works safe and does the job right
Schedule

Full-time with a mix of day and night shifts, since we schedule around our clients' business hours. If you value schedule variety — or prefer nights — this is a great fit.

How to Apply

Send us your resume or a summary of your ceiling installation experience — the types of projects you've done, and your role on them. Photos of your work are welcome.
