Be Part of Something That Truly Matters

At IPHNY, Inc., cleanliness is more than appearance — it's about safety, dignity, and respect. We're looking for a detail-driven Custodian/Cleaner who takes a top-to-bottom, whole-building approach to their work — inside and outside.

If you notice what others overlook and believe every space deserves care, this role was built for you.

What You'll Be Doing

As a Custodian at IPHNY, you'll be responsible for maintaining our facilities with a full-building mindset, ensuring every area is clean, safe, and welcoming. Your work will include:

  • Cleaning from top to bottom — inside and outside of each building
  • Daily cleaning and sanitizing of shelters, offices, bathrooms, kitchens, and common areas
  • Detailed cleaning of windows, door frames, baseboards, fixtures, vents, and hard-to-reach areas
  • Sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, and disinfecting all floors and high-touch surfaces
  • Performing scheduled deep cleans and quarterly cleaning projects to maintain high standards
  • Removing trash and recycling and restocking cleaning and hygiene supplies
  • Exterior upkeep including walkways, entrances, grounds care, and snow removal
  • Identifying and reporting maintenance or safety concerns promptly
  • Assisting with minor repairs, furniture moves, deliveries, and event setup/cleanup
  • Providing custodial support across multiple IPHNY sites as needed

What We're Looking For

Required:

  • Strong work ethic with a whole-building, top-to-bottom cleaning mentality
  • Exceptional attention to detail — a must for success in this role
  • Ability to work independently, manage time effectively, and follow schedules
  • Knowledge of basic cleaning methods and safe chemical use
  • Valid, clean driver's license
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs. and perform physical tasks safely

Preferred (but not required):

  • Experience with deep cleaning, quarterly cleaning cycles, or facility-wide maintenance
  • Prior custodial, janitorial, or facilities experience
  • Strong communication and organizational skills

We provide training on equipment, deep-cleaning techniques, safety protocols, and IPHNY standards.

Why Join IPHNY?

  • Work that directly supports individuals experiencing homelessness
  • Consistent weekday schedule
  • Supportive, mission-driven team culture
  • Opportunities for growth within the organization
