DESCRIPTION

A Hands On Start to a High Demand Career in the Skilled Trades

Just out of high school and not sure what you want to do next?

Unsure if a technical college is the right fit—or want to see firsthand what the HVACR and Building Trades are all about?

Crosstown Mechanical, Inc. offers a unique pathway for young adults who want to explore the trades, gain hands on experience, and build a career without student debt.

Joining our Operations Support Department is your chance to learn the industry from the ground up.

This isn’t a desk job. You’ll work in our shop, around our technicians, equipment, and operations team—seeing the trade up close while building real-world skills.

A Message for Students & Parents

Leading advocates for the skilled trades often talk about how the trades offer real opportunity, high earning potential, and a path to success without a four year degree. We couldn’t agree more.

There are internships and apprenticeship pathways in our industry that can take a motivated high school graduate from zero experience to earning $150,000 a year—at the same time many peers are graduating from college with the same amount in student loan debt.

The biggest question young adults ask is:

“How do I get started?”

This position is the pathway. It is an introduction to the mechanical trades and a stepping stone toward:

  • A union apprenticeship (Pipefitters / UA)

  • Commercial HVACR Service Technician roles

  • Installation Technician roles

  • Long-term, stable, high-paying skilled careers

If you want a career—not just a job—this is the place to begin.
