A Christmas Light Installer professionally installs, services, and removes custom holiday-lighting displays on residential and commercial properties while protecting the customer’s home and working safely at height.
People from roofing, gutters, window cleaning, siding, soffit/fascia, solar, painting, tree service, landscaping, exterior maintenance, and construction often transition well because they already understand ladders, tools, outdoor work, and working around customer properties.
Christmas-lighting experience is helpful, but it is not required for the right person. Holiday Prestige can teach the installation system; candidates must bring reliability, safety awareness, stamina, coachability, and the willingness to work.

Trade experience is valuable even if you have never installed Christmas lights professionally.
This is a physically demanding outdoor job that requires sustained stamina rather than bodybuilding-level strength. Installers repeatedly climb ladders, carry equipment, move around properties, work with their hands, and maintain a productive pace throughout the day.
Holiday Prestige needs installers who can work at least five days per week during the season, with six-day availability strongly preferred when demand is high.
Additional day-six or day-seven overtime may be available when weather, workload, and scheduling allow. Extra work can create strong earning opportunities during a compressed season, but overtime is not guaranteed.
A growing company can create advancement opportunities faster than a company that has already decided exactly how many crews, territories, and managers it will ever need.
Holiday Prestige was founded in 2018 and remains hands-on and owner-led. The company has acquired two businesses over the past several years, is expanding its local service capacity, and plans to pursue additional opportunities in Chicagoland and outside Illinois as the right opportunities become available.
That growth can create hard-to-reach opportunities for employees who prove they are dependable, capable, coachable, and ready for more responsibility — from crew leadership and specialized installation to sales leadership, traveling teams, operations, and future market roles.
Yes. Strong seasonal installers may be considered for permanent lighting, landscape lighting, warehouse, service, traveling crews, or leadership roles when openings exist and the employee has proven dependable and capable.
Holiday Prestige hires for attitude, reliability, safety, professionalism, and the willingness to learn. Skill matters, but the best long-term employees are people others can count on.
Most strong tradespeople want a boss who understands the work, communicates clearly, pays attention to what happens in the field, expects high standards, and treats good employees with respect.
Holiday Prestige founder Phillip Herrejon comes from a blue-collar, hands-on operating background and remains involved in the business day to day. His management philosophy is straightforward: stay humble, work hard, take care of the people who take care of the company, and build relationships that can last beyond a single season or project.
Holiday Prestige is not trying to create a culture where employees are anonymous numbers. The goal is to build strong crews and long-term working relationships, while still holding everyone — including leadership — accountable for doing the job correctly.
