Education — High school diploma or GED.

Physical — Comfortable working at heights and in tight spaces, able to safely operate lifts to reach high areas, and able to lift up to 55 pounds.

Safety — Willingness to complete OSHA safety training, use required PPE, and follow all Physical Plant safety standards.

Driving — A clean or otherwise acceptable driving record.

Approach — Self-directed and resourceful, with a customer-service mindset and a genuine eye for making a space look its best.

If you have a strong foundation in painting and finishing and take pride in your work, we're glad to help you round out the general-maintenance side of the role. A good painter who cares about the craft is what we're really after.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:

Your core work is painting and finishing across a large, active campus — surface prep, priming, and finish-coating drywall, metal door and window frames, and other surfaces as needed, along with drywall patching and wall touch-up to make those finishes look right. Interior and exterior caulking is a regular part of the job, as is patching and hanging vinyl wall coverings. You'll measure and estimate square footage and lineal footage to order the correct paint and materials, and keep the paint shop's supplies and inventory organized and stocked.

Beyond individual work orders, you'll have a hand in the bigger picture — helping build and maintain a campus-wide painting plan that prioritizes needs so the university always puts its best face forward. You'll respond to painting work order requests as they come in, and because you'll be moving all over campus, you'll serve as another set of eyes for the facilities team, flagging other maintenance needs so we can stay ahead of them.

No one wants to paint the same wall types day after day with nothing to break it up, and this role has natural variety built in. You will regularly lend a hand to the carpentry team on the kinds of jobs that get you out of the paint shop for a while — hanging pictures, TVs, and whiteboards, helping with office and furniture moves, and assisting with storefront and glass work. It is a welcome change of pace that keeps the days varied while the carpenters get an extra set of capable hands.

Like everyone in facilities, you'll also pitch in on general maintenance and cross-departmental work when the situation calls for it — event setups, snow removal, and emergency response are shared efforts across the team.

General Employee Expectations:

• Follow the guidance and direction of supervisor(s).
• Demonstrate respectful, ethical, responsible behavior.
• Abide by the University’s policies, procedures, and rules.
• Perform employee responsibilities as detailed in employee handbooks and policies.
• Demonstrate regular and predictable attendance and punctuality.
• Other duties, including special projects, as required or assigned.
