Job DescriptionCompany Description Accessible Space, Inc. (ASI), a nonprofit organization, was founded in 1978. At that time, housing opportunities for adults with disabilities did not exist. Many people in need of attendant and homemaker support ended up in nursing homes. ASI offered a different option in which people could live independently in their own accessible, affordable cooperative homes or apartments and draw on supportive services as needed. ASI’s unique model enabled consumers to share service hours so supportive assistance would be available 24/7/365. Today the need for supportive housing and assisted living options continues to grow. Accessible Space’s initial five cooperative homes provided housing for 30 consumers in Minnesota. Now ASI is a nationwide organization with 136 buildings in 26 states and has developed additional buildings in 31 states Job Description We are looking for a full-time Property Caretaker / Maintenance person for our apartment building in Kansas City, KS. $21 - $24 per hour Here's what you'll be doing: • Maintain a clean and safe environment, • Complete minor building and unit maintenance repairs, • Do all duties related to unit turnovers, • Carry out ongoing routine maintenance and prevention checks, • Implement required unit and building inspections, • Perform routine errands Qualifications Property Caretaker / Maintenance qualifications: • One year of experience in performing minor building and maintenance repairs, • Work independently, • Effective communicate orally and in writing, • Ability to effectively and appropriately interact with individuals, • Availability to complete general work responsibilities Monday through Friday between the hours of 7am and 6pm Additional Information What it’s in it for you: • 3 weeks paid time off your first year, • Health and dental insurance, • Holiday pay, • Life insurance, • Employee assistance program, • Wellness rebate, • Education reimbursement or fax resume to HR: 651-645-0541
