Job Description

Asset Specialist – Residential Properties – Grand Rapids Area

Tired of the 'patch-it-and-go' culture where you're forced to use band-aids instead of real solutions? At Green Property Management (GPM), we don't hire fixers—we recruit Asset Specialists. We want the technician who looks at a furnace or a faucet and treats it as if it were in their own basement. If you’re ready to trade the mindless treadmill of work orders for a role where you’re empowered to take ownership of your craft, you belong in our engine.

Values we stand for

Our team operates around a few principles that guide how we work and how we treat the properties we manage.

Ownership mindset: Treat every property and repair as if it were your own.

Radical transparency: Communicate clearly about what is happening in a home and document work so owners and residents have visibility.

Community first: Well-maintained homes create better neighborhoods for the people living in them.

System over hustle: We build processes that make the work more efficient instead of relying on chaos and last-minute fixes.

What you will do

You will maintain residential properties across the Grand Rapids area including single-family homes and apartment communities.

Your day-to-day work will include routine maintenance and repair tasks such as minor plumbing, electrical troubleshooting, drywall repairs, and light carpentry. You will also help prepare apartment units for new residents by completing turn or make-ready work so homes are clean, safe, and ready for move-in.

You will respond to maintenance service requests from residents and record completed work through our property management software. Attention to detail matters because your work directly affects the quality of living for the people in our communities.

The role also includes inspecting buildings for potential issues with doors, windows, walls, and other structural elements. Identifying problems early helps prevent larger repairs later and keeps our properties running efficiently.

We also perform preventative maintenance to reduce equipment failures and safety risks. This is a team that believes in solving problems before they become emergencies.

Our lawn and snow operations are handled by a separate team. Maintenance technicians are not expected to shovel snow or perform landscaping duties.

What we look for

Experience: Prior maintenance experience or strong hands-on experience in property maintenance, construction, or remodeling.

Technical capability: Working knowledge of plumbing systems, electrical components, HVAC systems, and general building maintenance.

Problem solving: Ability to diagnose issues, think through repairs, and complete work efficiently.

Accountability: Strong work ethic, reliability, and attention to detail.

Communication: Ability to document service requests and completed work using our property management software.

Availability: Willing to participate in an on-call rotation one night per week and one weekend approximately every five weeks.

• Competitive pay based on experience

• Paid sick and personal time after 90 days

If you enjoy solving problems, working with your hands, and being part of a team that takes pride in maintaining quality properties across the Grand Rapids area, we would like to hear from you.
