Maintenance Technician

Description

Many Mansions believes that everyone deserves a place to call home. It is from this belief that Many Mansions strives to provide affordable, quality, services-enriched rental housing for formerly homeless and those of very low income in Ventura and Los Angeles Counties. To meet the need in the community, Many Mansions is embarking on an expansion program, doubling the number of affordable apartment homes over the next five years. The planned expansion will require increased staffing in both counties. Working with Many Mansions is an exciting opportunity to be a part of a mission driven and innovative team and to help make a positive impact in the community.

We need people with and without disabilities from diverse backgrounds, lived experiences, and skill sets to live out our mission. We strongly encourage people who have felt the impacts of the nation's housing crisis to apply.
