Job Description

Seasonal Position: October–January | Overtime Available | Potential for Long-Term Employment

Shine is looking for dependable, hardworking Holiday Lighting Installers to join our team for the upcoming Christmas lighting season in Fort Myers.

This is a seasonal position running approximately October through January, with significant overtime opportunities during our busiest months. We are especially interested in applicants with previous professional Christmas/holiday lighting installation experience, although candidates with strong experience in roofing, exterior services, landscaping, construction, or other ladder-intensive trades are encouraged to apply.

For the right person, there may be an opportunity to transition into a long-term position with our company after the holiday season.

What You'll Be Doing

Our holiday lighting team installs professional Christmas lighting displays on residential and commercial properties throughout Southwest Florida.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Installing professional Christmas lights on homes and commercial properties
• Installing roofline lighting, trees, shrubs, wreaths, garland, and other holiday décor
• Safely working from extension ladders, step ladders, and rooftops
• Measuring and custom-fitting lighting to properties
• Running extension cords and electrical connections neatly and safely
• Troubleshooting and repairing lighting when necessary
• Removing and organizing lighting displays after the holiday season
• Loading and unloading equipment, ladders, lights, and supplies
• Keeping company vehicles and equipment clean and organized
• Communicating professionally with customers and teammates
• Maintaining a clean and safe jobsite

Experience We're Looking For

Previous professional holiday lighting installation experience is strongly preferred.

We're particularly interested in applicants who have experience with:

• Professional Christmas light installation
• Custom-cut C9 roofline lighting
• Roof and ladder work
• Tree and landscape lighting
• Troubleshooting lighting and electrical connections
• Working efficiently as part of an installation crew

Experience in roofing, window cleaning, pressure washing, construction, landscaping, exterior maintenance, or another hands-on trade is also valuable.

If you already know how to install professional holiday lighting and can step in and contribute quickly, we definitely want to hear from you.

What We're Looking For

This job is physical and fast-paced, especially as we get closer to the holidays. The right person should:

• Be dependable and show up on time
• Have a strong work ethic
• Be comfortable working on roofs and extension ladders
• Be physically capable of lifting and carrying ladders and equipment
• Be comfortable working outdoors throughout the day
• Have good attention to detail
• Work efficiently without sacrificing quality or safety
• Have a clean and professional appearance
• Work well as part of a crew
• Be comfortable interacting with customers
• Have a valid driver's license and reliable transportation to work

Seasonal Schedule & Overtime

This position runs approximately October through January.

During the holiday lighting season, we work 6 days per week, and applicants should expect long days and a fast-paced schedule during our busiest weeks.

Overtime is paid at 1.5x your regular hourly rate.

Availability during the heart of the Christmas season is extremely important. We're looking for people who understand that this is a short, busy season and are ready to work hard and take advantage of the overtime while it's available.

Potential for Long-Term Employment

Our immediate need is for the October–January holiday lighting season, so applicants should consider this a seasonal position.

However, Shine is a year-round exterior cleaning company providing window cleaning, pressure washing, and other exterior services throughout Southwest Florida.

Exceptional employees—especially those with previous holiday lighting, window cleaning, pressure washing, or exterior-service experience—may be considered for a permanent position after the holiday season.

Long-term employment is not guaranteed, but we're always interested in keeping great people who fit our team and can contribute to our other services.

What We Provide

• Paid training on our installation methods and standards
• Company vehicles
• Professional holiday lighting equipment and supplies
• Ladders and necessary tools
• Company shirts and hats
• 1.5x overtime pay
• Opportunity for significant hours during the holiday season
• Potential opportunity for year-round employment

Our Core Values

Excellence – Take pride in your work and do things the right way.

Positive Energy – Bring a good attitude to work and treat customers and teammates with respect.

Having Fun – We work hard during season, but we want to enjoy the people we work with.

Safety – Working on ladders and roofs requires everyone to take safety seriously.

Join Our Holiday Lighting Team

If you're comfortable working outdoors, aren't afraid of heights, enjoy hands-on work, and want the opportunity to earn significant overtime during a busy four-month season, we'd like to hear from you.

Experienced holiday lighting installers are strongly encouraged to apply.

Come help us make Southwest Florida shine this Christmas season.

Compensation: $20.00 - $24.00 per hour
