Lighthouse Service Partners is a people- and mission-driven trades company serving home service businesses — plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and related trades — across Australia. Backed by Alpine Investors, a firm dedicated to building enduring businesses by investing in exceptional people, we're growing fast, and we need a Talent Associate who can grow with us.

The Role
