About Us

At Service Minds, we proudly operate nationally recognized home service brands — Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, Mister Sparky Electric, and One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning. Our mission is simple: to provide an exceptional customer experience, every time. We are growing rapidly across Florida and beyond, and our success comes from hiring talented, driven people who are passionate about making a difference.

As part of our IT team, you’ll be at the core of ensuring our 2,000+ employees have the technology, tools, and support they need to serve our customers with excellence.

You’ll act as the first escalation point for employees, provide direct hands-on support, and coordinate with the IT Manager on systems, security, and infrastructure improvements.

This is a hybrid position requiring regular in-office presence in Bradenton, with travel to branch locations across Florida and occasional acquisition sites.
