• Conduct regular safety and facility inspections; address hazards fast and communicate status updates.
• Partner with the Director of Aquatics, Equipment Service Manager, and Facilities Manager to plan work and minimize downtime.
• Maintain organized inventories for aquatics, maintenance, and equipment supplies.
• Support after-hours/emergency on-call needs as assigned; travel between clubs and supply houses (mileage reimbursed).

What you bring

• 5+ years in facilities, multi-site maintenance, aquatics, and/or equipment repair.
• Working knowledge of commercial electrical, plumbing, and mechanical systems.
• Experience with ServiceChannel or similar CAFM/FMS.
• A pro toolkit and the know-how to use it safely.
• Strong organization, communication, and follow-through—you keep leaders and club teams in the loop.
• A positive, professional, member-first attitude (and punctuality to match).
• Valid driver’s license and insurance; willingness to work flexible hours.

Nice to have (bonus points)

• Facilities maintenance certifications.
• Experience leading complex repair projects across multiple locations.
