A SCHEDULE YOU CAN PLAN AROUND
Weekday work, weekly pay, and family time built in
This position normally runs Monday through Friday from approximately 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with 30–40 hours available each week. Payday is every Friday.
Paid time-off eligibility begins after one year of employment. We take off the week of Thanksgiving and the week of Christmas to spend time with our families.
A company truck is provided during the workday. Reliable personal transportation is only required to get to and from work.
THE WORK
Run a quality pool route the right way
You will service residential pools throughout Port St. Lucie using a company truck. Each assigned pool receives the complete Pool Pro Florida service and a documented digital report.
- Arrive on the assigned service day
- Test the water and accurately record the results
- Add the correct chemicals based on current conditions
- Skim, brush, and vacuum according to our service standard
- Empty baskets and check visible circulation conditions
- Leave the pool area clean and secured
- Complete the digital service report

QUALITY BEFORE SPEED
This is not a 20-pool-a-day race
Our routes are built around approximately 12 pools per day so technicians have time to do the work properly. Speed comes from learning the route, following a consistent process, and keeping the truck and equipment organized—not from cutting corners.
Some pools need more attention than others. When that happens, take care of the customer, document the condition, and communicate with us. Doing the right thing will never be held against you.
QUALITY ACCOUNTABILITY
Pay for Performance rewards quality work
Pay for Performance is earned when assigned pools are properly serviced and documented to Pool Pro Florida’s standards. Quality, reliability, communication, and completing the assigned route all matter.
We know things happen. Weather, equipment problems, unusual pool conditions, and schedule changes are part of the job. When something gets in the way, communicate it so we can handle it the right way.
The full Pay for Performance policy and advancement standards are reviewed during onboarding.
