Floating Apartment Maintenance Technician
About the role
Berger Communities is hiring a Floating Service Technician to support multiple apartment communities throughout Lancaster, Millersville, Middletown, York, PA, and Frederick, MD. We're looking for someone who takes pride in their work, enjoys solving problems, and values building positive relationships with residents and team members. As a Floating Service Technician, you'll provide maintenance support across multiple apartment communities throughout West Chester, Glenmoore, Wilmington, and Bel Air.

At Berger, we're invested in your success. With our award-winning culture, strong values, and people-first approach, you'll have opportunities to grow your skills, advance your career, and make a meaningful impact on the communities you serve every day. Location: Based throughout the Lancaster, York, and Frederick markets. Join Berger Communities and help keep our apartment communities running at their best while building a rewarding career with a company that values its people.
