Descripción del empleo

We are interested in every qualified candidate who is eligible to work in the United States. However, we are not able to sponsor visas.

At The Scion Group, we’re changing what student housing means. It’s bigger than beds and buildings. It’s about providing unique experiences and creating communities — both on and off campus — that feel like less like a place and more like a home.

The Porter provides a customer-centric focus to the care and maintenance of the outdoor features of a residential property, including landscaping of planting beds, lawn care, snow and ice removal from hard surfaces, and trash removal. Additionally, the Porter is responsible for the general cleanliness and upkeep of common area facilities including but not limited to, the pool and spa, club room, public rest rooms, laundry rooms, parking areas and exterior building lights. The Porter may also assist others with the general maintenance needs of the property, cleaning and moving services on an as-needed basis, always with a focus on professional services for residents.
