To thrive as a Church Maintenance professional, you need hands-on skills in basic plumbing, electrical repair, carpentry, groundskeeping, and facility upkeep, often supported by a high school diploma or equivalent. Experience with tools such as power drills, lawn equipment, and maintenance management software is typical, and certifications in HVAC or general maintenance can be advantageous. Dependability, attention to detail, and a strong sense of communication and teamwork stand out as important soft skills. These qualities ensure the safety, comfort, and smooth operation of church facilities for both staff and the community.
