Custodian

Are you ready to bring your energy, precision, and pride of work to a team that values excellence? We're looking for a Custodian who does more than maintain a facility-someone who helps create an environment where staff, visitors, and community members feel welcomed, supported, and safe. The ideal candidate brings a powerful blend of skills, qualities, and attributes that make them exceptional in delivering efficient and effective facilities operations.

They possess a sharp attention to detail, spotting and addressing issues before they become bigger challenges. Their reliability and punctuality ensure that tasks are consistently completed on schedule, while their strong work ethic drives them to go above and beyond in every duty. As a true team player, they collaborate seamlessly with staff and the Facility Manager, contributing to a positive, cooperative workplace. They thrive in changing environments, demonstrating adaptability and flexibility with new tasks. Most importantly, they are customer-focused-approachable, respectful, and dedicated to creating a pleasant experience for every building occupant.

If this sounds like you, we invite you to bring your commitment and positive attitude to our team!
