What We're Looking For

The successful candidate will be organized, dependable, professional, and comfortable managing employees in a fast-moving environment.

Previous supervisory or management experience is strongly preferred. Experience in commercial cleaning, facilities management, hospitality, retail, manufacturing, or another service-based operation can be beneficial.

Candidates must have reliable transportation and be able to travel between customer locations throughout the Greater Toledo area during their shift.

Strong communication, time-management, problem-solving, and leadership skills are essential. Because our customers depend on us every day, this position requires someone who can adjust when plans change and take action when an issue needs immediate attention.
