Turn Assistance/Maintenance (Temporary) | Rambler - Austin, TX

About the role

Turn is the most intense stretch of the year. One group of residents moves out, a new group moves in, and every unit in between has to go from "lived in" to "looks brand new" — fast. That's where you come in: hands-on, all-hands-on-deck work that makes a resident's day-one walk-in feel perfect. No experience required. Show up ready to work and we'll teach you the rest.

What you'll do

Each day you'll get a list of units, common areas, or projects. Depending on the day:

• Trash-outs & hauling — clear out units, load dumpsters, reset spaces to a blank slate
• Make-ready & punch lists — light bulbs, air filters, smoke detector batteries, blinds, hardware, minor fixes
• Paint & touch-up — patch, prep, and paint units and common areas
• Cleaning & detailing — sweep, mop, floor care, and the deep-clean work that makes a unit feel new
• Furniture install — unload, assemble, and place (yes, Allen wrenches and lifting)
• Grounds & move-in day — keep the property sharp and lend a hand when families arrive

You won't do all of it every day — but be ready to do any of it.

Requirements

• Reliable — you show up, on time, ready to go
• Not afraid of physical work or getting your hands dirty
• Take direction well and move fast without cutting corners
• A team player who treats residents and the crew with respect

Schedule & physical demands

Temporary, seasonal role tied to turn — typically a 2–4 week stretch with long days and some weekend work at peak. No benefits. You should be able to lift up to 50 lbs, stay on your feet for long stretches, and go up and down ladders and stairs throughout the day, including in heat and tight spaces.
