Maintenance Technician

We're looking for a dependable, handy maintenance technician to help care for a small group of apartments buildings located close together in Chicago's Rogers Park neighborhood. This is a great fit for someone who wants steady, flexible work on top of another job, a side business, or a busy schedule. Most weeks involve about one day of work, and you can choose your hours as long as the work gets done. If you're already in the area a few hours on a couple of days a week, that works too.

• Handle minor plumbing repairs (faucets, toilets, clogs, leaks)
• Perform drywall patching, paint touch-ups, and other cosmetic repairs
• Perform routine walkthroughs of common areas and note any needs
• Assist with unit turnovers and general property upkeep as needed
• Keep accurate notes on completed work and communicate updates to the management team

Qualifications

• Prior experience in building maintenance, property maintenance, or a related trade preferred
• Working knowledge of basic plumbing, electrical, and carpentry repairs
• Own basic hand tools (preferred)
• Ability to work independently and manage your own schedule
• Reliable communication and follow-through
• Reliable transportation, or the ability to get to the Rogers Park area easily

Why Work With Us
