Building Maintenance Worker

Department: Maintenance & Facilities

Reports To: Maintenance Supervisor

FLSA Status: Nonexempt

Schedule: This first-shift position offers flexibility in start and end times to support work-life balance. Standard hours are Monday through Friday, 6:00 a.m.–2:30 p.m., with alternative schedules available, such as a 7:00 or 8:00 a.m. start. While the role primarily follows a weekday daytime schedule, our 24/7 manufacturing operation occasionally requires overtime or adjusted hours, including evenings or weekends, to address urgent maintenance needs. Flexibility is a shared expectation—we offer scheduling options while relying on our maintenance team to help keep operations running when unexpected needs arise.

Compensation: The hourly pay range for this position is $31.00 to $37.00. Starting pay is based on relevant experience, skills, and qualifications. Candidates whose backgrounds more closely align with the position’s requirements and who bring greater directly related experience may be considered toward the upper end of the range.
