Build a Career that Actually Matters.
For 35 years, Relief Services has kept New York’s homes and businesses running. We’re growing — and looking for tradespeople, apprentices, and office crew who take pride in doing the job right.
The Package
We Invest in Our People Like Our Work Depends on it.
Because it does. The trades have a retention problem — we don’t. Here’s what shows up in your offer letter, not just on a recruiting flyer.
Top-of-market pay
Hourly + performance bonuses. Overtime that actually adds up. Annual raises tied to skill, not tenure.
Full health coverage
Medical, dental & vision from day 31. We cover 80% for you and 60% for family.
Paid apprenticeship
Get licensed on the clock. We pay for school, books, and exam fees through our 4-year journeyman track.
Take-home truck
Stocked van, fuel card, uniforms, and tools provided. Your commute starts when the day starts.
Real time off
3 weeks PTO, 8 paid holidays, and a paid week between Christmas and New Year. Family first.
401(k) + match
6% company match, vested immediately. Plus life insurance and short-term disability at no cost.
Questions
Things People Actually Ask.
Don’t see your question? Email careers@reliefservices.com — a real person replies within a day.
Do I need to be licensed already?
Nope. We hire at every level — from first-year apprentices to master plumbers. If you’re not licensed, we’ll get you there on our dime.
What hours do you work?
Standard shifts are 7am–4pm Mon–Fri. We run a voluntary on-call rotation for emergencies that pays time-and-a-half plus a flat call-out bonus.
Is there room to grow?
About 70% of our leads and supervisors started in entry-level roles here. We post promotions internally first.
What gear do I need to bring?
Just steel-toe boots. We provide uniforms, tools, truck, fuel, phone, and tablet.
Do you sponsor visas?
Not at this time, but we welcome anyone with valid work authorization in the U.S.
