Job title: Personal Assistant to the Owner —
Sprinkler Company Location:
Salt Lake County, UT (hybrid — remote + on the road; no office)
Pay:
$24
- 28 per hour, W-2 Job type: Full-time in season, reduced hours in winter About the role I run BEST Sprinkler Co.
a licensed residential sprinkler installation and service company here in Salt Lake County. We're a small, growing crew, and I've hit the point every owner hits: I'm wearing too many hats, and the business needs someone whose whole job is taking a bunch of them off my head. At its core, this is a personal assistant job — you're my right hand. Some of the work is business support (yard signs, scheduling, marketing tasks, hiring help), some of it is personal (meals, errands, and keeping my home clean and running), and the thread tying it all together is simple: you take the things that eat my time so I can stay locked in on the work thats high leverage — building marketing, making plans, training my crew, and writing the guidebook for how this company runs. A big and genuinely pivotal part of this role is home upkeep — cleaning, laundry, and basic chores at my place in Draper. I don't have time to do it, and you keeping that handled is a real chunk of what makes this job valuable. Part of your job is literally keeping me on track and pointed at the right things. We cannot have unplanned disruptions in the summer peak season. If you like variety, hate being micromanaged, and get satisfaction from making a business run smoother every single week, this will be a fun one. What you'll actually do Every day:
- Keep detailed notes on everything you do — every action and change gets logged; this is a core habit of the role, not an afterthought
- Keep our Housecall Pro job board clean: scheduling, dispatch, follow-ups
- Give me a quick morning brief and evening brief — what's on, what needs a decision
- Drop courtesy door hangers on streets where we'll be working in the next day or two Every week:
- Put out yard signs — 100 signs a week is the standing target
- Manage our door-hanger canvassers: schedules, territories, verifying their counts, keeping them stocked
- Marketing: social media posts, review responses, email campaigns, EDDM mailers
- Help me hit our review goal (5 new customer reviews a week)
- Hiring pipeline: Indeed ads, screening applicants, scheduling interviews, onboarding paperwork
- Supply runs, bank runs, post office, errands
- Quality checks on finished jobs and quick check-ins with the crew
- Personal support at my home base in
Draper:
meal prep twice a week, grocery runs, errands, laundry, cleaning, and general upkeep of the house — this is a core part of the job, not a side note As you grow into it:
- Financial tracking: logging revenue, expense sheets, and monthly reconciliation — all built and run in Google Sheets
- Weekly reporting so we can both see the business at a glance
- Building out systems, checklists, and AI automations with me so the whole company runs better Schedule and seasonality (read this part) I want to be straight with you: this is a seasonal industry, and the hours follow the work.
- Peak season (roughly spring through fall): Monday through Saturday, full and busy. Overtime in the summer is a certainty — plan on it.
- Winter: most of the winter stays busy — that's when we build next year's marketing plans and systems, and we keep our people on all winter. A few slow stretches (maybe 4 to 8 weeks across the whole year) can drop to a 10-hour weekly minimum, but that's the exception, not the season.
- No guaranteed hours.
Most of the year is steady and consistent, but if you need identical hours 52 weeks a year, this isn't the right fit. And a kind but honest word about summer: we're a small business, and the season is where we earn our year. I need someone who is on time, every scheduled day, all summer long. If my assistant is regularly late or missing days in peak season, my only options are to hire a second person to cover the gap or watch us fall financially behind — and I can't step away from my own work to backfill. So reliability here isn't a nice-to-have, it's the heart of the job. If your summers are usually full of travel plans, this role honestly won't be a good fit, and that's okay. Pay, vehicle, and benefits
- $24•28 per hour depending on experience, W-2 employee (not 1099)•Hybrid role: partly remote, partly on the road, and frequently at my home base in Draper, right off the freeway at 12300 South.
There is no office location.
- A company vehicle is provided — picked up and left in Draper — or you can use your own if you prefer. Either way we use MileIQ to track and separate personal miles.
- No benefits package at this time. Requirements
- Valid driver's license and a clean driving record
- Strong Google Sheets skills — you can build a tracker from scratch, write everyday formulas (sums, IFs, lookups), sort and filter data, and keep shared sheets clean and up to date. Our tracking, reporting, and financial sheets all live in Sheets, so this is daily work, not occasional.
- Dependable summer attendance — on time, every scheduled day, all season (see the schedule section above) Preferred (not required)
- Associate's degree or higher Who does well in this role
- Organized self-starters who can run a checklist without being chased
- Comfortable with software: we live in Housecall Pro and Google Workspace, and we're building with AI tools — you don't need to be an expert in everything, but you can't be scared of it or new to it.
- Good on the phone and friendly with customers
- Comfortable working closely with an owner — this role supports both the business and my personal life (meals, errands, and keeping my home in order), so trust and discretion matter.
Part of the interview process will be reaching out to your family and old employers about there experiences with you. You will be required to sign an NDA, trust and confidentiality are a critical part of our success as well as a commitment to our customers.
- Bonus points: experience in home services, trades, marketing, or as an EA/operations coordinator How to apply Send a resume, and instead of a cover letter, just write me a few sentences answering this: what's a system or process you built or fixed that made someone's life easier?
That tells me more than any template letter will. Looking forward to meeting you.
