Facilities Representative

About the Role

Shepherd Electric Supply has been the first call when complex, time-critical electrical challenges need to be solved since 1892. A clean, safe, well-kept branch is the environment every promise Shepherd makes depends on. The Facilities Representative keeps that environment right, every day. This is not just pushing a broom — you are the person who keeps floors safe to walk, restrooms and break rooms decent, and the whole branch presentable. This role is for someone who takes pride in a space, notices details others walk past, and understands that a clean, safe branch is part of how Shepherd shows up for its people and customers.

Work Shift and Hours

Monday - Friday, 7:00am - 4:00pm

Compensation

The expected pay rate for this position is starting between $18.00 - $25.00 per hour depending on experience.

How This Role Connects to Our Compass

• We Keep Our Promises: A clean, safe branch isn't a once-in-a-while thing — it's every shift, on schedule, whether or not anyone is watching. Restrooms stocked, floors clean, trash handled. People count on the space being right, and you make sure it is.
• We Stay Hungry: You notice what needs attention before you're asked, and you look for the smarter way — the recurring mess with a root cause, the supply that always runs out, the corner everyone forgets. You don't just clean the space, you keep making it better.
• We Grow Together: You share the branch with the whole team and its customers. You time your work so it doesn't disrupt operations, work respectfully around people, and treat the space as everyone's. A well-kept branch lifts everyone in it.
• We Own It: You don't walk past the spill, the overflowing bin, or the smudged glass door. You take responsibility for the whole space — and when something's beyond cleaning, like a leak or a broken fixture, you report it rather than leave it for the next person.
• We Go Above & Beyond: You see the details others miss — the entrance a customer notices first, the break room that makes a teammate's day a little better. You leave the branch cleaner and more welcoming than the minimum ever would.
