Job Description

Location: Oakland & Wayne Counties, Michigan

Service Area: Field-based position with assignments throughout Oakland County, Wayne County, and surrounding communities.

We are hiring a dependable Field Operations & Property Maintenance Specialist to support our growing portfolio of residential properties, renovation projects, and customer locations throughout Metro Detroit.

This is more than a maintenance position. We need a trusted field representative: someone who can receive an assignment, assess the situation, complete the work, coordinate people when necessary, and report back to the office. You do not need to know every trade. We provide training, tools, and resources. What matters is reliability, resourcefulness, mechanical ability, and a willingness to take responsibility.

What You Will Do

Assignments are dispatched through our company app and may include:

• Performing residential maintenance and repair work
• Supporting renovation and rehabilitation projects
• Responding to tenant service requests and troubleshooting problems at propertie
• Inspecting properties and documenting conditions
• Coordinating laborers and subcontractors, and verifying that work is completed correctly
• Picking up and organizing materials, supplies, and equipment
• Keeping job sites clean, safe, secured, and organized
• Photographing and documenting completed work in the mobile app
• Reporting problems, material needs, delays, and unexpected conditions to management
• Researching unfamiliar tasks and learning new repair and installation methods
• Following company procedures and safety requirements

This is a working field position. One day you may coordinate several workers on a renovation; the next you may complete repairs yourself at a rental property. When an assignment calls for hands-on work through the entire shift, you should be comfortable doing it.

Who We Are Looking For

Construction knowledge helps, but reliability and problem solving matter more to us than mastery of every trade. The right candidate:

• Shows up consistently and on time
• Takes ownership of assignments and works independently
• Follows instructions and established procedures
• Knows when to solve a problem and when to call management
• Can research an unfamiliar task, review instructions or training materials, and apply what they lear
• Communicates clearly with the office
• Interacts respectfully with tenants, customers, vendors, and workers
• Can direct other workers when assigned
• Pays attention to safety, cleanliness, and property security
• Is comfortable with smartphones, apps, photos, checklists, and digital work orders
• Wants a stable, full-time position with increasing responsibility

Experience

Candidates should have previous experience in at least one hands-on field: property maintenance, construction, remodeling, facilities, apartment maintenance, building operations, automotive or mechanical work, warehouse operations, or field service. Experience supervising or coordinating other workers is a plus. We will train the right person who demonstrates mechanical ability, responsibility, and the ability to learn quickly.

Requirements

• Valid driver's license and clean driving record
• Ability to pass a background check
• Reliable and consistent attendance
• Comfort with basic hand and power tools
• Ability to perform physical work throughout a full shift, including safely lifting and moving common construction and maintenance materials
• Willingness to wear required work clothing and personal protective equipment
• Smartphone proficiency
• Ability to travel between properties in Farmington Hills, Detroit, and surrounding communities
• Professional communication with management, tenants, customers, and other workers

What We Provide

• Full-time employment with consistent work
• Paid on-the-job training, plus training resources for unfamiliar work
• Access to company tools and equipment as required
• Exposure to multiple areas of property maintenance and renovation
• Opportunity to develop leadership skills and take on greater responsibility as you demonstrate your ability
