Depending on where you work, your team might be busy cleaning floors or operating machinery. Whatever maintenance they perform, you'll be working behind the scenes to schedule workers, allocate tasks, and file reports.

This management position is typically a full-time job. You'll spend much of your day in an office, but you might need to visit different parts of your facility to check up on your employees. While most maintenance supervisors work during standard business hours, there's a chance you might work early mornings, late nights, or weekends.

Find Your Ideal Maintenance Supervisor Jobs

The first step to finding the ideal maintenance supervisor position is to pick the right job listings to apply to. Only focusing on listings that suit your employment needs and personal preferences will save you time and make the job hunt much easier.

The main question you need to ask when reviewing any job listing is whether you can see yourself at the job. Picture yourself working in the described setting and consider if it would make you happy. Here are some points to think about as you decide if a maintenance supervisor job is right for you:

  • Do you have skills, such as team leadership and computer experience?
  • Does the job utilize any of your industry specializations (for example, HVAC or aviation maintenance)?
  • Are you interested in working the schedule that the job listing mentions?
  • Does the job require special certifications, such as a food handler certification?
  • Would the location of this job work with your desired type of commute?
  • Do the company's mission and values align with your own?
  • Would working in this job help you further your career goals and qualify for other managerial positions?

Applying for Maintenance Supervisor Jobs

Once you've browsed all the job opportunities in your desired area, it's time to start applying. Follow these tips to help you create an application that will let you stand out and appeal to employers.

Review the Job Listing Closely

As you prepare your application, pay close attention to every detail of the job listing. If it asks for specific skills, like computer proficiency, be sure to mention past experience with essential tools like Microsoft Office or scheduling software.

Carefully review any special instructions in the listing as well. Some employers will ask for certain information or formatting, and you need to show that you can listen to an employer and follow their guidelines.

Submit Your Application on Monster

Be sure to create a Monster account before starting the application process. You’ll get access to all sorts of helpful benefits, including free resume reviews and custom job notifications for new listings.

The site will walk you through the process so that you can get your resume in front of top recruiters. Plus, you can track all your applications in one place.

Design an Effective Resume

Your resume is your chance to provide a great first impression. Use clear, simple formatting to list your education and workplace experience in chronological order. If you aren't quite sure what details to include, explore this supervisor resume sample for more ideas.

Many companies use applicant tracking software to scan submitted resumes and highlight promising job candidates. You can ensure your resume gets flagged for personnel review by including in-demand keywords such as:

  • communication

Include a Cover Letter

Though cover letters aren't a requirement in most maintenance fields, it's worthwhile to write one. A cover letter shows you have the professionalism and the communication skills needed to supervise others.

As this manager cover letter example shows, the most important points to express are the ways you would be a benefit to the team. Consider highlighting your role in increasing department productivity or your remarkable safety record in a previous position.

Use your cover letter to clarify your skills and explain how even informal tasks, like a summer job as a lawn care worker, have prepared you to become a maintenance supervisor.

Following Up With an Employer

Typically, when you submit applications for maintenance supervisor jobs, you'll hear back from the hiring manager within a week or two. If you do not hear back in this timeframe, it's appropriate to send a follow-up message.

Start the follow-up process by finding the appropriate person to contact. Some listings will have a number or email you can reach out to. Otherwise, look up the company's human resources department and address your follow-up to the hiring manager or another HR employee.

During your follow-up, try getting inspiration from these interview-landing tips. Keep your message brief, highlight your interest in the position, and encourage them to reach out to you if they'd like to learn more about you.

How to Interview for Maintenance Supervisor Jobs

Your interview is your big chance to sell yourself. During the interview, you get to show exactly why you'd be the ideal candidate for the maintenance supervisor position. To help improve your chances of getting the job, make sure to follow these tips.

Prepare Before the Interview

In a maintenance supervisor interview, aim to show that you're a thoughtful, organized person who can handle being responsible for a property. This starts by showing that you're prepared for the interview itself. Research the company so you can talk about their maintenance needs as specifically as possible.

Next, prepare for common maintenance supervisor interview questions and think of ways to answer them. You don't need to rehearse long speeches, but make sure you have an idea of what you'd say for some basic questions. Potential questions include:

  • What would you do if you noticed a technician breaking OSHA safety standards?
  • How would you resolve a conflict between two maintenance technicians?
  • What process would you follow for conducting safety inspections?
  • Why are you interested in a supervisory role?
  • What would you do if you realized an essential maintenance task had been accidentally skipped?

Qualities to Demonstrate During the Interview

For each question that you get asked, view it as an opportunity to showcase your skills and experience. Whenever possible, answer the question by mentioning past events and tasks that you've performed at other jobs. Show that you have a proven track record of handling the duties that a maintenance supervisor needs to perform.

It's fairly common for interviews for maintenance supervisor jobs to have questions like, "Do you have experience training employees," that might sound like you could answer them with a simple "yes" or "no." However, always remember to elaborate. Do things like describe a past team you've trained and the steps you've taken when training people.

Don't forget that the interview is assessing your ability to fit in with the team and supervise co-workers efficiently. Try to maintain a polite and friendly attitude while still being confident and professional. Make sure to treat all employees you run into with respect, even if you don't think they have any influence over the hiring process.

Make Sure to Follow Up

Ideally, you should send the interviewer a thank-you email within 24 hours of your interview. This helps you build on the connection you established earlier, and it's also an excellent way of showing just how passionate you are about the job. This note can be a brief message that simply thanks them for their time and mentions why the interview has made you more interested in the job.

If you still don't hear back from the employer for a week, consider a more detailed follow-up email. This can be a great way to plead your case if they're still undecided about who is right for the position, or if they've chosen another candidate, it can help you get useful feedback on how to improve your interview skills.

How to Handle a Job Offer

How you react when you get the good news about a job offer can have a huge impact on your career. Whether you plan to accept the job or not, the smartest thing to do is politely thank the company for their interest and ask for a day to consider the offer. This gives you time to think about things logically without getting distracted by the excitement of the offer.

The first thing you'll need to do is consider the salary they're offering you. Check the average wages for maintenance supervisor jobs in your area to make sure the pay is fair. Next, look at the job duties to make sure they aren't asking you to do things like handle all maintenance yourself or supervise an overly large team.

Once you're confident that you can manage the required responsibilities and earn a reasonable wage, it's time to think about your long-term plans. Consider whether the job is in a specific field, like construction or real estate, that you're interested in being in. You should also think about whether the company has other positions, like warehouse manager, that you might be able to transition to one day.

By weighing the pros and cons of the offer, you can decide whether a job is right for you or not. Keep in mind that if you like most of the offer but have a problem with one small aspect, you can negotiate. Try approaching the company with your research and politely ask if there's any way they can adjust the salary or other aspects of the job to make their offer more competitive.

Career Paths Following Maintenance Supervisor Jobs

Some maintenance supervisors see the job as a way of moving up the ranks in their chosen industry. For example, an aircraft maintenance supervisor might become an aircraft inspector, or a maintenance supervisor at a warehouse might move into operations management. You can learn a business thoroughly and make valuable network connections that you can use to apply for internal promotions.

Another potential career path is to use your specialized knowledge to pivot to an entirely different career within the same field. Some maintenance supervisors choose to get additional education and certifications that they can use to advance their careers. This job can provide helpful experience in a variety of mechanical and technical fields, so you can explore becoming an engineer or a machinist.
