As a
Maintenance Custodian
, you will help create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for the staff, students, tenants, and visitors who rely on our facilities every day. In this role, you take pride in keeping spaces looking their best and functioning smoothly.
You will perform a wide variety of general maintenance, custodial, and grounds‑related tasks. Your work may include commercial cleaning, painting, light patching or spackling, and the operation of industrial cleaning equipment such as carpet vans, shampooers, vacuums, pressure washers, and window‑cleaning tools.
Throughout your day, you will clean restrooms, classrooms, apartments, offices, recreational areas, and similar facilities—helping ensure every space is welcoming and well cared for. You will also move and set up heavy items such as furniture, tables, equipment, and cleaning supplies.
This is an active, hands‑on position. You should feel comfortable bending, stooping, lifting up to 50 pounds, climbing and standing on ladders, and walking or standing for extended periods.
