Build More Than Apartments—Build a Legacy

We’re looking for a maintenance leader who’s done this before—and done it well. If you have recent, hands-on experience supervising maintenance teams in apartment communities (multi-family, 4+ direct reports), we want to talk.

Important: Only candidates with at least 2 years of RECENT apartment (multi-family) maintenance supervisory experience (teams of 4+) will be considered.

About the Role

You’ll oversee the day-to-day maintenance operations for a luxury apartment portfolio (about 120 homes) in Columbus’s vibrant Short North. This is a working supervisor position—expect to lead from the front, tackling service requests, apartment turns, and preventive maintenance right alongside your team.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Lead & Mentor: Directly supervise, coach, and develop a maintenance team of 4+ members.
• Daily Operations: Prioritize, delegate, and follow up on all work orders and emergency requests.
• Apartment Readiness: Oversee (and help with) apartment turns—every home must meet high standards.
• Technical Expertise: Troubleshoot and repair HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliances, and more.
• Preventive Maintenance: Build and execute proactive maintenance plans.
• Inventory Management: Keep supplies organized and stocked.
• Community Standards: Ensure the property looks great and meets safety requirements.
• Resident Relations: Deliver excellent customer service and communication.
• On-Call Leadership: Participate in the on-call rotation.

What We’re Looking For

• Minimum 5 years of hands-on apartment (multi-family) maintenance experience
• Minimum 2 years of RECENT supervisory experience managing a maintenance team of at least 4 (apartment/multi-family only)
• Proven skill in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliances, drywall, and general repairs
• EPA Certification required
• Strong troubleshooting, organizational, and leadership abilities
• Experience with apartment turns and preventive maintenance
• Excellent communicator with a resident-first mindset
• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Lead by example and pitch in with the team—never afraid to get your hands dirty
• Take ownership, solve problems, and keep things running smoothly
• Value mentorship and team development
• Stay calm and professional under pressure
• Believe great maintenance is key to happy residents and a strong community

What We Offer

• Competitive Pay: $30.00–$32.00/hr, based on experience
• Comprehensive benefits: Health, dental, vision, and more
• Generous PTO: Paid time off and holidays
• Supportive leadership that values your experience
