About Handi MaidsHandi Maids has proudly served the Richmond area since 1983. We are a long-standing, family‑owned company with deep roots in the community. Our focus is simple: take great care of our people so they can take great care of our clients. We believe in clear expectations, fair pay, and treating one another with respect. This is a workplace where team members are known, supported, and valued.
We are growing, and we are looking to add a new technician to the team. If you want a place that invests in you and gives you a real path forward, keep reading.
This is a full‑time, daytime residential cleaning position with a steady, predictable schedule. Your core schedule is Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm, with your evenings free.
There are no required weekends. Optional weekend jobs such as short‑notice cleans and vacation rental turnovers pay time and a half (1.5x) and can be taken or passed. If picking up an occasional weekend shift at a premium rate appeals to you, let us know. If you prefer a strict Monday‑through‑Friday schedule, that works too. This role includes a paid training and mentorship period, fully paid at your base rate.
Your pay grows from there as you build consistent hours and prove yourself.
We train differently than most cleaning companies, with fully paid training and support from the whole team. Our crew will tell you it is one of the best parts of working here, and it is a big reason our team is so strong and our work stays consistent. We are also looking for people we can grow into Lead roles, which come with additional pay.
If you are reliable, coachable, and want to advance, we want to hear from you.
You will clean and care for our clients' homes using a consistent system, with training and support from our team.
- Clean kitchens and bathrooms (sinks, counters, toilets, tubs/showers, mirrors)

Most of our work is residential recurring cleans and occasional deep cleans, with additional earning opportunities for certified services. We also serve a small number of light commercial clients, such as doctor offices, held to the same high‑end standard as our home cleans and are not janitorial work. If that kind of work interests you, it can be an option down the road.
