This Service Technician role is a full-time, hourly position with a pay range of $23.00 to $25.00 per hour. The position is pivotal in maintaining the physical integrity and appeal of Greystar-managed properties. The technician ensures that buildings, grounds, and amenities meet the company’s high standards through technical and mechanical work.
