Your Role as Senior Maintenance Technician:

You’ll be responsible for larger renovation projects, higher-value turnovers, and the kinds of repairs that need more than a quick fix. You’ll work closely with the Project Manager and Property Managers to make sure capital improvements and larger unit turns go smoothly, stay on budget, and meet our standards.

What We’re Looking For:

• Solid experience in maintenance and renovations 
• Excellent communication and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to juggle multiple priorities in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment.
