About the Position
Are you an experienced maintenance professional who enjoys working with your hands, solving problems, and taking pride in keeping a building running safely and smoothly?

- Perform hands-on maintenance, troubleshooting, and repairs throughout the property.
- Diagnose and address common HVAC, electrical, plumbing, carpentry, painting, and mechanical issues.
- Perform preventative and routine building maintenance.
- Conduct daily walkthroughs to identify maintenance, cleanliness, and safety concerns.
- Respond to maintenance needs and determine the appropriate steps to resolve problems.
- Complete repairs within your skill level and communicate when specialized service may be needed.
- Help maintain a clean, safe, functional, and welcoming environment for tenants, employees, and visitors.
- Communicate with the Site Manager and Regional Manager regarding completed work, ongoing projects, repair needs, and necessary supplies.
- Take ownership of maintenance issues and follow through until they are resolved.

- The ability to safely lift and carry at least 50 lbs.
- Basic computer skills, including email and video conferencing.
Why Join Us?
- Competitive starting pay of $32–$35 per hour, based on experience and expertise.
