About the Role

A well-maintained facility doesn't happen by accident — it takes someone who notices what needs doing, takes pride in doing it right, and shows up every day ready to work.

• Complete minor repairs such as replacing doorknobs, patching walls, changing light fixtures, and adjusting doors
• Use hand tools, light power equipment, and ladders safely and effectively
• Pick up and transport tools, equipment, or supplies from local hardware stores as needed
• Follow verbal and written instructions to complete projects safely and to a high standard
• Research and learn new techniques for unfamiliar repair or improvement tasks independently
• Wear appropriate PPE and follow all company safety standards at all times
• Maintain consistent attendance, dependability, and professionalism across all assignments

What You Bring

• Valid driver's license required
• Must be able to pass a Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) check as a condition of employment
