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.

- Execute a proactive preventive maintenance schedule to protect building systems and minimize emergency calls
- Manage and document new construction, appliance, and warranty protocols during the initial lease-up phase
- 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
