Temporary General Maintenance Director
2 weeks ago
Our General Maintenance Directors are a key part of each community’s success, responsible for overseeing our most challenging, complex assets: often our top NOI drivers, mixed-use, and/or multi-site. They are our facilities leaders who provide the technical know-how behind each apartment community and provide guidance and training to the maintenance team. From HVAC to plumbing to a fresh coat of paint, General Maintenance Directors have a hand in every apartment and every resident’s satisfaction. As General Maintenance Director, your superior organizational skills and attention to detail will be utilized to attend to residents’ needs and manage service requests and apartment turnovers to ensure the work is performed timely — all while leading by example by modeling Equity’s standards and managing the budget. Your strong technical skills will be utilized to identify and diagnose problems and perform a variety of service requests.
At Equity, being a manager is much more than sitting behind a desk directing others; we believe in leading by example and walking in the shoes of the people you manage. Each day, you will spend your days out and about with your team, implementing scheduled maintenance, responding to service requests, managing vendors, and communicating and building rapport with residents. As a General Maintenance Director, you will be among our most senior property leaders. You will be an expert on your community, working along with and directing a team of maintenance professionals to ensure it is in excellent condition for our residents.
