  • Help maintain grounds, common areas, and amenities by removing trash and debris, pressure-washing breezeways and pool areas, performing general cleaning, and painting curbs and signage as needed.
  • Support cost-cutting and expense-control programs by repairing rather than replacing parts when possible, avoiding waste, and using tools and equipment properly.
  • Complete make-ready checklists and other required maintenance documentation on time.
  • Follow safety and risk-management policies, attend routine safety meetings, complete required OSHA and other safety training, and promptly and accurately report accidents and incidents.
