We are currently seeking a dedicated and proactive Groundskeeper/Porter to join our team on a part-time basis with weekend hours primarily on Saturdays from 10 AM to 5 PM and Sundays from 1 PM to 5 PM, as needed. The Groundskeeper/Porter plays a crucial role in the day-to-day maintenance and cleanliness of the entire community, including offices, models, clubhouse, lobbies, laundry rooms, common areas, and the outdoor grounds. This role requires a strong commitment to safety, attention to detail, and the ability to carry out multiple responsibilities efficiently. The successful candidate will be responsible for a range of duties that involve both indoor and outdoor work, sometimes in extreme weather conditions, ensuring that every area meets the community's high standards.

The Groundskeeper/Porter will maintain scheduled time periods for essential tasks such as cleaning common areas, vacant apartments, policing the grounds, and general grounds maintenance. Communication with supervisors is key, as the Groundskeeper/Porter must report completed work and prepare areas for inspection to ensure compliance with Drucker + Falk standards. Accurate recordkeeping of time worked and supply needs is required, and the individual must coordinate with maintenance management to procure necessary supplies without overstocking. Additionally, the Groundskeeper/Porter will identify and report defects or deficiencies observed during daily tasks, enabling prompt repairs and upkeep.
