    Description

    We are looking for assistance with basic maintenance, repair, and improvement tasks. Ideal for those who enjoy hands-on work and giving back to the community. Your work will ensure our facilities remain safe for our seniors who may have mobility challenges, functional for various programs, and welcoming to our whole community.

    You'll be assigned maintenance tasks such as putting together furniture, spackling, painting, and minor fixes to equipment. Tasks may vary and this role will be fairly independent, though will be supported by our facilities manager.
