Position Summary

A hands-on site-support role focused on exterior grounds, property condition, access areas, drainage, seasonal readiness, and assigned basic facility‑maintenance work. The position helps maintain a safe, orderly, functional manufacturing campus without being defined primarily by production‑machine troubleshooting.

The role may work independently across outdoor and building‑perimeter areas and coordinate with internal maintenance, EHS, security, operations, and approved vendors.

Perform regulated, licensed‑trade, chemical‑application, or specialized equipment work only when properly trained, qualified, and authorized.

Position Purpose

Maintain the plant property and assigned facility‑support areas in a condition that supports safe access, drainage, appearance, emergency response, employee movement, delivery activity, and uninterrupted site operations.

Address routine grounds conditions before they create slip/trip, visibility, drainage, pest, vehicle, or property‑damage risks.

Complete assigned building‑support repairs within training and authorization.

Escalate structural, electrical, roofing, gas, fire‑protection, environmental, or licensed‑trade conditions beyond role scope.

Manufacturing Process Context

This role supports the AKER by MAAX Martinsburg manufacturing site through reliable site infrastructure and property conditions. Safe parking lots, drive lanes, walkways, drainage, exterior lighting access, dock approaches, fenced areas, waste areas, and building perimeter directly support employees, visitors, deliveries, emergency access, and production continuity.

Perform groundskeeping, landscaping, exterior cleanup, and seasonal property response activities assigned to the role.

Production‑machine preventive maintenance and breakdown repair remain the responsibility of industrial maintenance unless specifically assigned within the employee's training and authorization.

Support assigned facility housekeeping and cleanup activities that fall within the role's facilities scope.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Inspect grounds, parking areas, pedestrian routes, dock approaches, fence lines, drainage paths, exterior storage areas, and building perimeter for unsafe or deteriorating conditions.

Perform mowing, trimming, edging, weed control, leaf/debris removal, brush control, litter pickup, and landscape upkeep as required by the site standard.

Maintain clear pedestrian routes, fire‑lane access, hydrant access, gates, signage visibility, and emergency egress approaches.

Support snow/ice removal, salting/deicing, storm cleanup, freeze protection, or severe‑weather preparation only where climate and site responsibility require it.

Clean or clear approved drains, grates, gutters, downspout discharge areas, and surface‑water paths within safe access and environmental requirements.

Perform basic facility repairs such as minor carpentry, hardware, doors, fencing, painting, caulking, patching, or fixture replacement when assigned and qualified.

Operate approved grounds equipment, site vehicles, utility vehicles, pressure washers, blowers, mowers, trimmers, or other equipment after qualification.

Inspect tools/equipment before use, report defects, and maintain preventive care for grounds equipment assigned to the role.

Coordinate or escort approved landscaping, pest‑control, paving, waste, fencing, roofing, or other site vendors when assigned.

Document work requests, property defects, material use, seasonal tasks, and unresolved hazards through the approved maintenance system.
