ABOUT US

We don’t mean to brag… but we’re building something pretty special ;)

Hey — I’m Dan, the owner of Squeaky Solihull. We’re a fast-growing local exterior cleaning business based in Solihull, specialising in window cleaning and gutter clearing as our core day-to-day work, alongside pressure washing, softwashing and roof cleaning for residential and commercial customers.

Our mission is simple: To grow Squeaky Solihull into a £1m+ per year exterior cleaning business, known locally for transformational results and outstanding customer service.

We use top-of-the-range, professional equipment (much of it manufactured in-house under our sister brand Hero Softwash) — and we’re now looking for the right person to join us as we scale.

We’ve got the work. We’ve got the vans. We’ve got the systems. We just need you.

WHY THIS IS A GREAT JOB

✔ Full training provided (skills can be taught — attitude can’t)

✔ Work outdoors, stay active, no boring desk job

✔ Regular, structured routes with clear expectations

✔ Modern vans and professional-grade equipment

✔ Clear pay progression (no empty promises)

✔ Bonuses, tips & performance rewards

✔ Small, close-knit team — no corporate nonsense

✔ Practical skills you’ll use for life

We do things properly. Customers respect us. Standards are high. Staff are supported.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

The core, day-to-day work in this role is regular window cleaning and gutter clearing on residential routes. Alongside this, you’ll also carry out pressure washing, softwashing and roof cleaning jobs as part of the wider service we offer.

You’ll start with a 60-day paid training programme, working alongside a lead technician and learning:

• Professional window cleaning (reach & wash systems)
• Gutter clearing using high-powered vacuum systems (occasional ladder use)
• Pressure washing & softwashing (driveways, patios, render, roofs)
• Safe handling of equipment and cleaning chemicals
• How to run and maintain a professional exterior cleaning van
• How to communicate confidently and professionally with customers
• Practical mechanical skills you can use long-term

Once trained, you’ll:

• Work independently in a company van
• Deliver high-quality results on every job
• Represent the business professionally at all times
• Take before/after photos and short videos for customers and social media
• Keep your van and equipment in “show-ready” condition

⚠ This is physical, outdoor work, all year round.

THE NITTY GRITTY

We’re based locally in Solihull, with vans and operations run from Shirley. You won’t be stuck in an office — but everything behind the scenes is organised so you can focus on doing a great job.

You’ll be equipped with modern vans, professional equipment and proper systems, not bodged setups.

This is a full-time, permanent role, ideal for someone who wants stability now and progression as the business grows.

BRAND NEW OPPORTUNITY

This is a key early hire as we continue to expand Squeaky Solihull.

You won’t be “just another number”. You’ll have a real say in how we work, with opportunities to step up into higher responsibility and leadership roles as the team grows.

THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THIS ROLE

✔ Clean UK driving licence (over 25 yrs for fleet insurance)

✔ Physically fit and happy working outdoors

✔ Reliable, punctual and coachable

✔ Comfortable speaking to customers

✔ Takes pride in their work and appearance

✔ Confident using IT products beyond just a phone

Experience is preferred, but attitude matters more than experience.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ

To apply, mention in your application that you have a clean UK driving licence.

This role involves regular window cleaning and gutter clearing, and working outdoors in all seasons.

If you’re only interested in occasional pressure washing, or prefer to avoid working in cold, hot, wet or physically demanding conditions, this role will NOT be the right fit.
