• Ensuring safety and regulatory compliance through inspections and repairs.
• Coordinating with vendors and contractors for specialized work.
• Maintaining organized and clean mechanical rooms, shops, and storage spaces.

You'll also assist with special projects like furniture moves, renovations, and after-hours or emergency support when needed.

We're looking for a reliable, self-motivated professional with strong troubleshooting skills and pride in your work. You should have:

• Experience in commercial property or facility maintenance, ideally in healthcare or medical settings.
• Working knowledge of HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general building systems.
• A proactive mindset — you see what needs to be done and make it happen.
• Strong communication and organizational skills.
• The ability to maintain professionalism and integrity in every interaction.

When you join Cornerstone, you're not just maintaining buildings — you're helping create the environments where healthcare happens. We offer:

• A supportive, team-oriented culture that values your contributions.
• Opportunities to learn, grow, and expand your technical expertise.
