Why Work With Lattuca Invest?
We understand that self-employment isn't for everyone.
Being self-employed can mean finding your own jobs, spending evenings quoting, buying materials, dealing with customers, chasing invoices, cancellations and worrying about keeping your diary full.
With us, the work is already there.
You'll benefit from:
- 8am–4pm working hours
- Monday–Friday
- Weekends free as standard
- PAYE employment
- Reliable monthly salary
- Paid holidays
- Workplace pension
- Consistent year-round workload
- No finding your own customers
- No advertising for work
- No quoting customers
- No chasing invoices
- No waiting for customers to pay
- Jobs scheduled and organised for you
- Materials organised for jobs
- Varied work across different properties
- Long-term employment
- Opportunity to progress as the company grows
Coming From Self-Employment?
If you're currently self-employed and want more stability and your evenings and weekends back, we'd particularly like to hear from you.
You may be earning good money on individual jobs, but once you factor in unpaid quoting, travelling, cancellations, quiet periods and chasing payments, self-employment can become a 7-day-a-week job.
We're offering something different:
Come to work at 8am. Get the job done. Finish at 4pm. Go home.
Your work is scheduled for you and there's a consistent pipeline of properties waiting.
