Job Description

Lyon Living is a prominent real estate company specializing in the management and operation of mixed-use properties and multifamily residential communities. With a strong commitment to providing exceptional living experiences for its residents, Lyon Living partners with property owners to enhance community lifestyle, maintenance, and overall resident satisfaction. Their properties are known for high-quality standards, modern amenities, and attentive management services, making them a preferred choice for renters seeking comfortable and well-maintained living environments. The company prides itself on fostering vibrant communities and maintaining safe, clean, and welcoming spaces that residents are proud to call home.

Currently, Lyon Living is hiring for the position of Porter - Groundskeeper at The Fields, a mixed-use property located in Milpitas, CA. This role is crucial to maintaining the pristine appearance and functionality of the property to ensure a positive resident experience. The Groundskeeper is entrusted with the responsibility of upholding high-quality standards through meticulous outdoor and indoor maintenance tasks. This position involves a blend of janitorial duties, landscaping assistance, and general upkeep to support the property’s cleanliness and curb appeal.

The role provides an excellent opportunity for individuals who enjoy hands-on work in a dynamic environment and are dedicated to excellent customer service. The Groundskeeper will be responsible for tasks such as maintaining common areas, managing trash removal, caring for tools and equipment, and assisting with preparations for new apartment occupancies. Specialized functions include cleaning light fixtures, windows, laundry and storage areas, as well as ensuring that clubhouse and recreational facilities remain inviting and well-maintained.

In addition to physical maintenance duties, the position involves safety responsibilities such as the proper storage and handling of chemicals, cleaning products, and other hazardous materials. The Groundskeeper will also participate in monthly safety meetings and maintain accurate work records, emphasizing the company’s commitment to a secure work environment. While the job mainly focuses on maintaining the property grounds, it occasionally requires assistance with snow removal, demonstrating the need for flexibility and adaptability.

Lyon Living offers competitive pay in the range of $20.00 to $21.00 per hour for this role but does not provide on-site housing. The company’s benefits package is designed to support the welfare and growth of its employees, offering medical, dental, and vision plans, flexible spending accounts (FSA), health savings accounts (HSA), 401k retirement plans, employee housing discounts, education reimbursements, and referral bonuses. The role requires flexibility in scheduling, including the availability to work weekends and overtime as needed. Furthermore, candidates must possess a valid driver’s license or have access to reliable transportation to attend offsite meetings and complete other offsite work-related tasks.

Lyon Living values diversity and inclusion, ensuring that all employment decisions are made without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or veteran status. The hiring process includes pre-employment background checks and drug screening, and the company participates in the E-Verify program to maintain eligibility standards.
