The company offers a comprehensive benefits package and competitive wage, reinforcing its dedication to employees' well-being and success.

The role of a Porter at Harvard Maintenance is a vital part of maintaining the high standards of cleanliness and upkeep that the company promises. As a Porter, you will be responsible for the daily cleaning and maintaining the appearance of public and operational spaces within commercial buildings.

Reporting any maintenance or safety issues is also a key part of the job, ensuring that facilities remain secure and operational.

Harvard Maintenance values Porters who are dependable, communicative, and capable of working in varying weather conditions if required. Physical stamina is important, as the role demands the ability to stand, walk, sit, stoop, or kneel when necessary. The company offers a structured work schedule from Monday to Friday, 7 am to 3:30 pm, providing work-life balance to its employees.

Joining Harvard Maintenance gives you the chance to be part of a team that is committed to redefining industry standards and creating a rewarding workplace where your talents can thrive. Competitive salary, comprehensive health benefits including medical, dental, life, and long-term disability insurance, alongside a 401K savings plan, make this an attractive opportunity for individuals seeking stability and growth in the commercial janitorial sector.
