Drywall Worker Jobs in Michigan (NOW HIRING)

Position Overview

Tyler Drywall and Renovations is seeking a dependable, hardworking individual to join our team as a part-time (eventual full time) W-2 employee.

This position is intended for someone who is willing to learn, work consistently, and help maintain a professional environment in our customers’ homes. Previous drywall or construction experience is welcome, but it is not required. We are willing to train the right person from the beginning.

A Note from the Owner

I did not grow up working in the trades. I learned drywall through experience, practice, and a willingness to be taught.

Because of that, I am comfortable hiring someone with no previous trade experience. Skills can be taught. What matters most is finding someone who is dependable, honest, willing to work hard, open to feedback, and genuinely interested in learning.

Compensation and Growth

The first 90 days will serve as an introductory and training period.

At the end of 90 days, the employee will be eligible for an increase from $18.00 to $20.00 per hour if the working relationship is a good fit and the employee consistently meets the position’s Key Result Areas (KRAs).

The initial KRAs will focus on:

• Attendance and reliability
• Timeliness
• Communication
• Professional conduct
• Willingness to learn and receive feedback
• Following instructions and company procedures
• Jobsite cleanliness and respect for customers’ homes
• Appropriate progress in basic drywall skills
• Overall quality, effort, and consistency

These expectations will be reviewed with the employee so they understand how their performance will be evaluated.

Future compensation reviews will generally follow a one-year timeline. The long-term goal is to develop a performance-based compensation model in which raises and advancement are connected to demonstrated skills, responsibilities, reliability, quality, and overall contribution to the company.

Pay increases are based on performance and business conditions and are not automatic solely because a certain amount of time has passed.

Schedule and Hours

The initial goal is approximately 18–24 hours per week, with the possibility of increasing toward 30–40 hours per week as company workload and scheduling allow.

Weekly hours are not guaranteed and may vary based on available work and project schedules. Any overtime must be approved in advance.
