Work Environment

You will work in a mix of indoor and outdoor settings across modern residential communities, including brand-new, beautiful facilities in active lease-up phases.

The typical schedule is Monday through Friday, generally 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with participation in a rotating on-call schedule for after-hours maintenance needs.
