JOB DESCRIPTION SUMMARY

This role oversees and performs technical and mechanical work that ensures the inside and external buildings, grounds, amenities, and common areas of the community meet the Company’s standards for cleanliness, appearance, safety, and overall functionality.

JOB DESCRIPTION

• Manages work orders generated from resident requests for service, as well as routine upkeep on the community by diagnosing the source or cause of the defect or problem, and making repairs in accordance with established policies, procedures, safety standards, and code requirements.
• Oversees and completes the “make‑ready” process to prepare vacant apartment homes for leasing and new move‑ins by completing the pre‑move‑out inspection, creating a “punch” list of maintenance work needed, scheduling vendors and contractors as needed, obtaining needed supplies and materials, completing all maintenance tasks, and inspecting completed work.
• Develops standards for the cleanliness and overall appearance of the community’s grounds, amenities, building exteriors, market‑ready unit interiors, breezeways, curbs, signage, leasing office, central garbage areas, parking lots, and other buildings and common areas to ensure that they reflect and represent the high quality of the community and Greystar standards.
• Periodically inspects work performed by other service team members to assess the effectiveness of policies and procedures and develops corrective action plans as needed.
• Periodically inspects work performed by contractors, vendors, and other service providers to verify the work, materials, and services meet quality standards, scope, and specifications as required.
• Maintains adequate inventory of spare parts and maintenance materials and works with the Community Manager to order supplies and tools as needed to stay within budgetary guidelines.
• Completes monthly preventative maintenance procedures as outlined in the Policy and Procedure Manual.
• Supports cost‑cutting and expense control programs by fixing rather than replacing parts when possible, not being wasteful with materials and supplies, and practicing the correct use for tools and equipment.
• Conducts regularly scheduled Greystar safety meetings, ensures all MSDS sheets are current and readily accessible, and keeps up to date on all OSHA and other safety‑related laws and requirements to ensure community compliance.
• Demonstrates customer service skills by treating residents and others with respect, answering questions from the team and residents, responding sensitively to complaints about maintenance services, and assigning work orders with efficiency and urgency.

The hourly rate for this position is $37.00 - $39.00 per hour.
