Lead Maintenance Technician

Lead Maintenance Technician

We are looking for a skilled, proactive, and resourceful Facilities Maintenance Lead to oversee the upkeep and daily operations of our corporate headquarters. In this role, you won't just be fixing things. You will be the go-to problem solver, ensuring our team has a safe, comfortable, and fully operational environment to work in.

This is a dynamic, hands-on, full-time position that requires a strong blend of technical trade skills (with a heavy emphasis on HVAC) and the leadership mindset required to manage vendors, organize projects, and potentially lead small team initiatives down the line.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary on-site lead for our climate control systems. Perform routine maintenance, diagnose system errors, replace filters, and handle minor repairs to ensure optimal air quality and temperature control.
• Diagnose and repair minor electrical issues (fixtures, ballast replacements, switches) and facility plumbing tasks (clogs, leaks, fixture installations) safely and efficiently.
• Handle day-to-day corporate repairs, including drywall patch/paint, door/lock hardware adjustments, furniture assembly, and basic office reconfigurations.
• Conduct regular safety walkthroughs of the building to identify hazards, test emergency systems (fire alarms, emergency lighting), and keep the facility compliant with local building codes.

Experience & Requirements

• Minimum of 35 years of commercial or corporate facility maintenance experience.
• Strong working knowledge of commercial HVAC systems is highly preferred (EPA certification or formal HVAC training is a major plus).
• Demonstrated proficiency in basic electrical, plumbing, and general carpentry.
• Prior experience as a supervisor, lead tech, or project manager is highly preferred. Must be comfortable organizing workflows and communicating with corporate staff.
• Ability to lift up to 100 lbs, climb ladders, and remain on your feet for extended periods.
• Ability to use basic workplace software or smartphone apps to track maintenance tickets and communicate with management.

What We Offer

• Paid time off (vacation and sick)
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with employer match
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Career development and ongoing training
• On-site gym
