First-week onboarding requires availability during both daytime and evening hours, including online training, onboarding activities, and peer field training. Specific hours will be communicated by your manager.

What You'll Do:

  • Manage schedules, approve timecards, and ensure your team stays on track and within budget.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, open communication, and continuous improvement.

Keep Operations Running Smoothly:

  • Step in when needed to ensure uninterrupted service-service reliability starts with you.
  • Visit properties to review service quality, complete audits, and resolve any issues that come up.
  • Use technology tools like the iValet dashboard to track performance and ensure timely service completion.
  • Respond to resident or property concerns quickly and professionally.
  • Ensure Service Valets have the tools, equipment, and access needed to complete their routes.

Support Daily and Administrative Tasks:

  • Assist with hiring and training new Service Valets.
  • Pick up and distribute supplies, PPE, and containers as needed.
  • Work with your Operations Manager to monitor staffing levels and manage costs.
  • Help with special projects or service recovery efforts as assigned.
  • Oversee company vehicle maintenance and ensure fleet safety standards are met.

What We're Looking For:

  • Supervisory Experience: At least one-year prior experience overseeing a team or crew in a hands-on environment, preferred.
  • Organized and Detail-Oriented: Able to manage schedules, track service, and follow up on issues.
  • Tech-Savvy: Comfortable using Microsoft Office Suite and learning new platforms.
  • Data-Driven: Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret reports and make decisions.
  • Strong Communicator: Clear verbal and written communication skills.
  • Problem Solver: Quick to adapt, address issues, and find solutions.
  • Education: High school diploma or GED required.
  • Valid Driver's License: Required, with the ability to operate a company vehicle.

Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to lift and carry up to 50 lbs.
