    Job Description

The hours for this position will be Monday through Friday, full-time from 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.

    Join the California Faucets Team

    For over 30 years, California Faucets continues to dominate the industry in providing custom made manufactured bath and kitchen products out of our factory in Huntington Beach, California. Founded in 1988, California Faucets began with a simple premise: to deliver high-quality and customizable decorative faucets in a timely manner, while providing unparalleled customer service. Thirty years later, these principles remain the core of our company culture. We sell primarily through plumbing showrooms and specifiers such as architects and contractors, and offer both stock and highly customizable products. That makes our supply chain, as well as our manufacturing environment, a bit more complex than most, but we don't believe in mass-produced products.

    What's in it for you? We offer a collaborative and team-based work environment where we all focus on providing superior service to our customers. We offer competitive pay, outstanding benefits (including FREE healthcare options, 401k match, profit-sharing plan, a weekly pay schedule) and so much more
