About the Role
We are seeking a dedicated and hardworking Groundskeeper to maintain the "curb appeal" and safety of our 334-unit residential community.

- Curb Appeal: Pressure wash buildings, clean leasing office glass, and maintain the tidiness of dumpster areas and compactor enclosures.
- Unit Turns: Assist the maintenance team in "trash-outs" (removing abandoned items) from vacant units to help prepare them for new residents.
- Basic Maintenance: Perform light tasks such as changing exterior light bulbs, assisting with mulch distribution, and minor touch-up painting.
- Resident Service: Maintain a professional and friendly demeanor when interacting with our senior residents and families.
Requirements
- Previous experience in groundskeeping, janitorial, or general labor preferred (apartment experience is a plus).
- Must possess a valid Driver's License and have reliable transportation to get to work daily.
- Must be able to work outdoors in all weather (NC heat/rain), lift up to 50 lbs, and remain on your feet for the duration of the shift.
- Strong attendance record and a "can-do" attitude toward repetitive tasks.
Benefits
- Competitive pay at $17/hr.
- Stable, consistent Monday–Friday schedule.
- The opportunity to make a meaningful impact on an affordable housing community.
