Full job description

Building Caretaker (also known as Building Superintendent, Custodian, or Porter)

A building caretaker is responsible for the day-to-day operation, maintenance, cleanliness, safety, and general upkeep of a residential, commercial, or mixed-use building. They ensure the property remains functional, safe, clean, and pleasant for occupants and visitors.

Core Scope of Work

Physical maintenance of the entire building (interior and exterior common areas).
Preventive and minor corrective maintenance.
Cleaning and hygiene of shared spaces.
Basic security and access control.
Tenant/occupant support and communication.
Emergency response and coordination with external services.
Record-keeping of maintenance activities, supplies, and incidents.

The role is typically hands-on, on-site, and may require living on the premises in some residential buildings (especially in apartment complexes).

Key Responsibilities

1. Cleaning & Housekeeping

Daily cleaning of common areas: lobbies, hallways, staircases, elevators, laundry rooms, garbage rooms, and entrances.
Sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, dusting, and window cleaning (ground level or accessible areas).
Snow removal (in colder climates) and landscaping/light groundskeeping.
Managing waste disposal, recycling, and keeping garbage areas sanitary.

2. Maintenance & Repairs

Performing minor repairs (plumbing leaks, electrical issues like changing light bulbs/fuses, door/lock fixes, painting touch-ups).
Monitoring and maintaining building systems: HVAC, boilers, elevators, fire alarms, pumps, generators, and water systems.
Reporting major issues to property management or contractors and supervising their work.
Preventive maintenance: checking smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, drains, gutters, and roofs (accessible parts).
Pool/gym/common facility maintenance (if applicable).

3. Safety & Security

Ensuring compliance with fire, health, and safety regulations.
Monitoring security cameras, access systems, and visitor logs.
Responding to alarms, intrusions, or disturbances.
Conducting regular safety inspections and drills.
Enforcing building rules and policies.

4. Tenant & Occupant Services

Welcoming new tenants and providing orientation on building systems.
Handling tenant requests and complaints (e.g., maintenance tickets).
Collecting rent or packages (in smaller buildings).
Mediating minor disputes between tenants.
Communicating important notices (e.g., maintenance shutdowns, emergencies).

5. Administrative & Operational Duties

Maintaining inventory of cleaning and maintenance supplies.
Keeping logs of work performed, meter readings, and incidents.
Coordinating with vendors, contractors, and emergency services.
Monitoring utility consumption and reporting anomalies.
Seasonal preparations (e.g., winterizing, holiday decorations).

6. Emergency Response

First responder for leaks, fires, power outages, medical emergencies, or structural issues.
Evacuation assistance and coordination with authorities.
After-hours on-call duty (common in the role).

Typical Work Schedule & Conditions

Full-time, often 40 hours/week, with early mornings or evenings.
On-call availability for emergencies (especially if residing on-site).
Physical work involving lifting, bending, climbing ladders, and outdoor exposure.
Tools and equipment provided by the employer.

Skills & Qualifications Usually Required

Basic knowledge of plumbing, electrical, carpentry, and HVAC.
Strong problem-solving and customer service skills.
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
Valid driver’s license and clean criminal record (in many cases).
Certification in first aid, WHMIS, or building systems is an asset.

The exact scope can vary significantly depending on the building size, type (apartment vs. office), location, and whether the caretaker works alone or as part of a maintenance team. In large complexes, the role may be more supervisory; in small buildings, it is highly hands-on.

Would you like me to tailor this to a specific type of building (e.g., residential apartment, commercial office, school, or hotel)?

Pay: $20.00-$28.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule

Work Location: In person
