TECHNICIAN

So many plumbing companies in the Bay Area send technicians out with no training and no assistance, I hear from our technicians about how they always feel like they are on their own out there. training and support, growth and personal development, this is the Big Blue difference. We are a full service plumbing company not just a drain cleaning outfit, we get calls on everything from garbage disposals to water heaters to slab leaks and boiler replacements. We give you what you need to be successful and reach your professional and personal goals. Our goal is to be the best home service provider in the East Bay, what is your goal, how can we help each other get there?

With a solid benefit package including retirement and a competitive salary package as well as training, team building, community involvement and a supportive leadership, Big Blue is about a career, not just a job.

One of the key ingredients that has attracted some of our top talent is our training structure and belief in supporting the technician in the field. There are too many companies out there that give a guy a truck, a snake and a company T-shirt and send them out in the world, “Good luck, go be a plumber, figure it out”. It is insulting to the real plumbers.

If you want to be in an environment where excellence is expected, recognized and rewarded, Big Blue might be a good fit. Some of our technicians have been recognized on a National Level for performance and excellence in customer service.

APPRENTICESHIP

Plumbing can be a very rewarding career. Most young people are guided to get a college degree, many find that further education is not for them and they leave school before they can get a qualification. Others who receive their degree, learn that there are no jobs in their field and accept a position in the service industry just to pay their student debt. In the past there were thriving trade apprenticeship programs which provided a solid alternative to going to college. Now there is a stigma attached to getting a trade and many people never consider working in the plumbing industry. There are many reasons why a career in plumbing might make sense for you or your high school graduate:

• Paid to learn: As a trainee level apprentice, you get paid to learn a trade instead of accumulating debt. Many college graduates discover that after four years their ability to generate income is not that high and on top of that they have a large loan that needs to be repaid. Highly skilled plumbing service technicians can earn 6 figure incomes with benefits and retirement and they do this without any debt.
• Can’t be Outsourced: If you have a job that is done on a computer, their is a really good chance that somebody overseas can do that same job for less from their computer. Many of today’s jobs are being outsourced to Asia. When people need a plumber, they need a real person.
• Rewarding: Plumbing is a fun and rewarding career, we get to meet different people and work in some of the most amazing houses in the Bay Area. On top of this, we get to help people, too.
• Opportunity for Growth: From moving up the ladder to team leader and supervisor to becoming a manager, this is an entry level position with real opportunities to develop and move up within a company structure. Big Blue Plumbing apprentices receive on the job training as well as daily in house training and can be enrolled in a professional training academy if and when they reach that level.
