General Labor / Property Maintenance Technician (Housing Available)

Starting pay is $16-$20 per hour. After your 30-day probationary period, we will sit down and discuss your performance, skills, motivation, and pay rate. If you are fast and efficient, there is no problem paying $20

We also offer a work-for-housing exchange. A private 1-bedroom apartment located on the property is available immediately. In exchange for 15 hours of work per week, the apartment and all utilities are provided. Any hours worked beyond those 15 hours are paid at your hourly rate.

Schedule

  • Typical hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
  • One hour allotted for breaks/lunch
  • Most weeks range from 20-40 hours
  • Additional work is often available for those who want it and show initiative.

Benefits & Incentives

What We Need

Each day you will be given a list of tasks and expected to complete them efficiently without someone standing over your shoulder. We are looking for someone who takes pride in their work, shows up on time, and has a "see a problem, fix a problem" mentality.
