Distinguishing Characteristics
The condition of the College's buildings has a profound effect on the overall appearance of the campus, as well as on the daily lives of all who live, study and work there. Perhaps most striking is the impact this function has on the quality of life of students, particularly those who reside on campus.
The College's work force which is responsible for buildings and grounds Maintenance Is generally made up of individuals who each perform a wide variety of duties, and whose work strongly affects a diverse group of users of the facilities. Thus, employees in this area are expected to be multi-skilled, flexible, and able to work cooperatively with each other (to the extent of doing work of subordinates when necessary) and with other members of the campus community, often without direct supervision. Because of the nature of the work, reliable and regular attendance is essential.
Because individuals in this position must interact regularly with a wide variety of members of the campus community, as well as, on occasion, inspectors from City and State agencies and the College's insurance carrier, uniforms, furnished by the College, must be worn at times determined by supervisor.
Individuals in this position may be required to work at times that are other than, or in addition to, normal hours and days, including responding at any time to severe weather and other emergency conditions. Also, individuals in this position can expect to be "on-call" during nights and weekends for specified periods. Individuals must be available by telephone to report to work fit for duty during these times.
Education/Training
A high school diploma is required.
Experience
A minimum of one year of experience in building Maintenance Is preferred.
Licenses or Certifications
A valid driver's license and acceptable driving record is required.
