Support seasonal work such as snow and ice removal, irrigation checks, pressure washing, exterior touch-up painting, and signage repair. Inspect building exteriors, roofs, and lighting regularly to ensure all systems and structures remain in good condition. Safety, Tools, and Equipment Follow all OSHA, EPA, and company safety protocols while using ladders, power tools, and maintenance equipment. Ensure all tools, supplies, and equipment are properly maintained and reported for replacement or repair when needed. Attend and participate in safety meetings, toolbox talks, and required training sessions. Immediately report accidents, hazards, and unsafe conditions to the Maintenance Supervisor. Teamwork & Development Work closely with senior technicians to develop technical skills in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and appliance repair.
