We handle everything from single-family homes to commercial properties up to 250,000 square feet. We have two immediate openings for skilled maintenance technicians.

WHAT WE EXPECT

Above all, we're in the customer service business. Every technician represents Property Prep, and we expect that to show. You should carry yourself in a client's home or building the same way you'd want a tradesperson to behave in your own.

SCHEDULE

This is a full-time, on-site role based out of our Downtown Milwaukee office. A typical schedule is roughly 8 to 5, Monday through Friday. Nights and weekends are not a regular expectation.

The one exception is the summer apartment-turnover push. There are six dates each year that demand all hands: May 31, June 1, June 30, July 1, July 31, and August 1. If one of those falls on a weekend and you work it, you take a comp day during the week.

WHAT WE PROVIDE

- A new work van assigned to you, plus all major tools
- Health coverage with 90% of the employee premium paid and 50% for dependents (spouse coverage available unsubsidized)
- One week of PTO to start
