If you’re a retired tradesman who still wants to put your skills to good use—without the grind of full-time labor—Umarell might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.
We created Umarell for people like you: experienced construction workers, electricians, framers, welders, and craftsmen who don’t want to quit, but do want control.
What Is Umarell?
Umarell is a modern job platform built specifically for retired and semi-retired tradespeople.
It connects you to short-term, local job opportunities in construction, skilled trades, and light labor—without resumes, interviews, or long applications.
Here’s how it works:
- You sign up and tell us what kind of work you’re open to.
- We text you when a job matches your skills and location.
- You reply “INTERESTED” to take it—or “PASS” if you’re not available.
- That’s it.
No apps to learn. No clock-in system. Just flexible work on your terms.
What Kind of Jobs Are Available?
You won’t be asked to run crews or pull long hours. Most gigs are project-based, such as:
- Lending a hand on a framing crew for the day
- Reviewing an install for quality
- Helping unload and organize materials
- Mentoring a young worker on their first site
Whether you want to work one day a week or a couple times a month, it’s completely up to you.
Who Is It For?
Umarell is perfect for retired professionals who still want to:
- Stay active and engaged
- Use their trade experience to support others
- Make extra income on the side
- Be part of the construction community—without the stress
You set your schedule. You choose your jobs. You stay in control.
Why Retired Pros Love It
We’ve found that many workers miss the culture of the job site—the camaraderie, the hands-on work, and the satisfaction of a job well done.
Umarell helps you stay connected to all of that, without giving up your freedom.
If you want to put your skills to work on your terms, Umarell is the place to start.
