• Assist with space turnovers, including preparing vacant units for new tenants.
• Support the overall upkeep of the property, including common areas, amenities, and curb appeal.
• Assist in managing maintenance supplies and staying within budget guidelines.
Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in commercial property maintenance preferred.
• Strong knowledge of HVAC, plumbing, electrical systems, appliance repair, and general commercial maintenance.
• Ability to diagnose and resolve maintenance issues efficiently, including in occupied tenant spaces.
• Familiarity with safety standards, OSHA guidelines, and applicable commercial building regulations.
