About the Role
CHARLESGATE is expanding into the Worcester market with the opening of a 198-unit, Class A multifamily new development this August. We are looking for an experienced Building Maintenance Technician to be on the ground from day one — supporting a smooth building launch and delivering a best-in-class resident experience from move-in forward.

This is a rare opportunity to join a growing, award-winning property management firm at the start of a major new development. You will work within our collaborative pod team structure alongside a dedicated Property Manager, leasing staff, and operations leadership.

  • Coordinate with and oversee outside contractors and vendors on special projects
  • Monitor building systems — mechanical, electrical, plumbing — and escalate issues appropriately
  • Maintain common areas, grounds, and exterior spaces to the standard expected of a Class A property
  • Complete snow removal and seasonal groundskeeping tasks
  • Promptly report any property damage, safety concerns, or unusual occurrences to the Property Manager
  • Maintain a professional, courteous presence with residents, ownership, vendors, and colleagues
  • Adhere to all safety standards in compliance with company, local, state, and federal regulations
 
What We're Looking For
  • 3–5+ years of residential property management maintenance experience
  • At least 1 year of custodial and landscaping experience
  • Experience working in or opening a new development property is a strong plus
  • Proficiency with AppFolio work order and maintenance tracking (strongly preferred)
  • EPA 608 Certification and/or Certified Pool Operator (CPO) license are a plus — candidates with these credentials will be prioritized
  • HVAC, electrical, or other skilled trade certifications highly encouraged
  • Demonstrated skills across plumbing, electrical, drywall, painting, appliance repair, and HVAC
  • Reliable personal vehicle and basic tools required
  • High School Diploma or GED required
  • Ability to lift up to 50+ lbs occasionally, 25–50 lbs frequently, and 10–20 lbs regularly
  • Availability for after-hours, weekend, and holiday on-call rotation
