University of Providence - Great Falls, Montana
Build Something That Actually Matters
At the University of Providence, you're not just maintaining buildings-you're helping create a safe, welcoming, and mission-driven environment where students and community thrive.
Rooted in Catholic values since 1932, our campus is guided by dignity, compassion, excellence, and integrity. Every role here directly supports something bigger: education, opportunity, and community impact in Central Montana.
Why This Job Stands Out
This isn't just another maintenance role. It offers:
- Year-round, steady employment (no seasonal layoffs)
- Variety in your day-no two shifts are the same
- Strong team environment with supportive leadership
- Meaningful work on a campus that impacts lives
- Opportunities to learn new skills (including boiler licensing)
Whether you're working indoors or outdoors, helping prepare campus events, or keeping facilities running smoothly-you'll see the direct impact of your work every day.
What You'll Do
You'll be a key part of the team that keeps campus safe, functional, and beautiful:
- Maintain campus facilities, including light repairs, cleaning, and upkeep

- Assist with basic maintenance (lighting, plumbing, HVAC support, etc.)
- Help ensure campus safety with routine inspections and reporting
- Perform custodial duties including cleaning restrooms, offices, and public spaces
- Work with tools, equipment, and campus vehicles
- Collaborate with team members, faculty, and vendors
️ You'll be trusted to work independently, solve problems, and keep things running.
What You'll Gain
We invest in people who take pride in their work:
- Skill-building opportunities across maintenance, mechanical systems, and facilities operations
- Support to obtain your 3rd Class Boiler License
- Experience in a diverse, hands-on role with real responsibility
