Walser Automotive Maintenance Facilities Technician

#3831

Location

Corporate

About the Role

This is a hands‑on role with real variety and real ownership. No two days look alike — a leaking faucet and a run of burnt‑out ballasts in the morning, a scissor lift and a carpentry repair in the afternoon. You’ll work out of an assigned home building close to where you live, covering a portfolio most likely in the north metro, and it's common to be in several buildings in a single day.

You’ll run your own day. You decide how to prioritize the board, you diagnose the problem, and you see the fix through. If you like working with your hands, solving a different problem every few hours, and owning the outcome without someone looking over your shoulder, this is a good fit.

You don't need to have done all of it before. If you have a handyman, building maintenance, or skilled trades background, we will train you on the rest. No license required.

Compensation & Schedule

Base pay $24.00 – $28.00 / hour

On-call $100 per weekend on rotation, Friday through Sunday

Schedule Full-time, Mon – Fri, 7:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m., with occasional early starts and after‑hours work

Home base An assigned building based on where you live

Vehicle Company vehicle provided for use during work hours

Tools Truck stock provided, plus shared tools available in the warehouse

A predictable weekday schedule is rare in this trade. No rotating nights, no split shifts — you're home by 4:00 most days.

What You'll Do

• Travel between the buildings in your portfolio, often several in a single day, to assess and resolve facility issues on site
• Use our ticketing system to plan and prioritize your day, responding to all requests within 24 hours
• Handle plumbing repairs — faucets, fixtures, and leaks
• Complete light electrical work — switches, outlets, lamps, ballasts, and drivers
• Troubleshoot, service, and maintain HVAC systems
• Perform carpentry and painting across buildings, grounds, and interiors, plus preventative maintenance on buildings and equipment
• Safely operate a man lift, scissor lift, forklift, skid steer, and snowplow as the work requires
• Coordinate with CBRE and other third‑party facilities partners, directing their day‑to‑day work in our buildings

You won't be doing all of this alone. We work with CBRE and other partners, and you'll direct that work rather than carry every job yourself.

What You Bring

We'll train the right person. A handyman, building maintenance, or skilled trades background is what we're really after. No license required, and you don't need every skill on this list on day one.

Required

• Valid driver's license and an acceptable driving record
• 18 years of age or older
• Ability to lift a minimum of 50 pounds
• Flexibility and availability to participate in the on‑call rotation

Nice to have

• HVAC or boiler certification
• Ability to troubleshoot, repair, and perform preventative maintenance
• Carpentry skills
• Experience operating a forklift, skid steer, man lift, or snowplow
• Willingness to obtain certifications as appropriate — we'll pay for them

Physical Demands & Working Conditions

This is an active role and you'll be on your feet most of the day.

• Lifting and carrying up to 50 pounds up to 25 feet in distance, with occasional lifting up to 70 pounds
• Working on ladders and roofs, and in rare cases, high or precarious places
• Outdoor work in all temperatures and seasons
• Frequent standing, walking, bending, kneeling, squatting, pushing, pulling, and driving between sites
• Exposure to noise, vibration, paint, dust, exhaust fumes, other hazardous and non‑hazardous materials, and extreme heat and/or cold
• Using a computer for day‑to‑day tasks and electronic technology required by OEMs

Our Core Values

• Do The Right Thing — Nothing is worth compromising a relationship
• Lead By Example — Be willing to help no matter how difficult the challenge
• Display Positive Energy — A good attitude is highly contagious
• Be Open Minded — The only thing that is constant is change

What's In It For You

• Paid Time Off — time to relax, spend with family, or take personal time away
• Comprehensive health benefits — medical, dental, and vision through Blue Cross Blue Shield, plus HSA and FSA plans
• Life insurance and 401(k) — company-paid life insurance and an employer match
• Fertility and adoption assistance — up to $10,000
• Career growth — clear paths, mentorship, and advancement; we promote from within
• Employee discounts across products and services
• Employee Resource Groups — Women of Walser, Drive with Pride, Asian Hmong Alliance, and Veterans at Walser
• Community involvement — volunteer opportunities with the Walser Foundation
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP) — support for personal and professional challenges
• Referral bonuses for referring talented candidates
