ABOUT THE ROLE
Benjamin Franklin Plumbing - \"The Punctual Plumber\" - is launching in the Madison market and hiring several Journeyman Plumbers. You'll run service calls, drain work, water heaters, repairs, and installations out of a fully stocked company van, backed by a 200+ location national brand's training, technology, and dispatch systems. This is a ground-floor opportunity. You'll be one of the first technicians on the team, with a real runway to lead tech, foreman, or master-track development as we scale to a multi-van operation across Madison, Middleton, Verona, Waunakee, and surrounding Dane County communities.
WHAT YOU GET
Competitive pay with structure flexibility + performance pay (spiffs and bonuses on completed work), based on experience and license tenure. We're also open to hybrid hourly + commission, full commission, or salary structures — tell us what fits your career and your life, and we'll build the offer around it. Fully stocked, company van. No more loading and unloading your own truck before and after every shift. Health, dental, and vision insurance. Paid time off. Paid holidays.
Ongoing paid training:
manufacturer certifications, Success Academy access, and a clear path toward your master plumber credential if that's your goal. Uniforms provided. Specialty and power tools provided beyond your personal hand tools. Stable, year-round work in a recession-resistant trade: under a national brand with local Madison WI ownership.
HIRING BONUS
— UP TO $9,000 Licensed Journeymen are eligible for a hiring bonus of up to $9,000, based on license tenure, residential service experience, and prior performance history. Specific amount and terms reviewed during the interview process and confirmed in your offer letter. Minimum $3k bonus.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Diagnose and repair residential plumbing: leaks, drains, water heaters, fixtures, sewer lines, gas lines, sump and ejector pumps. Perform installations and replacements — water heaters (tank and tankless), repipes, fixture upgrades, water treatment.
WHAT YOU BRING
Valid Wisconsin driver's license with an insurable driving record. 3+ years of hands-on plumbing experience; residential service experience strongly preferred. A customer-first mindset. You can explain plumbing to a homeowner without making them feel small

A NOTE FROM THE OWNER
I'm Anthony Richards. Here's where I come from. My grandfather owned a construction company. My dad ran a building supply store. My uncle owned a roofing company. From about age twelve on, I worked for all three of them; sweeping floors, loading trucks, riding out to job sites, tearing shingles off roof jobs, and learning what work actually looks like when someone's paying for it. That's the world I grew up in. I left the trades for a while and built a career in tech —> Fortune 500, large non-profits, Google-Ventures backed startups, and more. I chose Benjamin Franklin Plumbing because the brand's systems work: Straight Forward Pricing, ServiceTitan, the on-time guarantee, the training programs. I didn't want to spend three years figuring out things that 200+ other locations have already solved. I wanted to spend that time building a team I'd be proud to send into a customer's home. I'm not trying to be the biggest plumbing company in Madison. I'm trying to be the one techs want to work at and homeowners want to call back. I don't want you to wake up dreading to go to work. Let's have some fun. If that's you, let's talk.
