Facility Administrator- Part Time Job in Fontana, California Us

Do you have your evenings and weekends free and desire to do something more meaningful than laundry or watching TV all day?  Every once in a while would you like to push your chair back from your desk and get outside?  If this sounds like you, we may have the perfect spot for your working career.

Our company, a well respected, forward thinking, growth oriented property management firm located in Orange County with several offices throughout the state, is on the hunt for a Facilities Administrator.  While there are many administrative aspects in assisting the Facility Manager in the smooth running of an on-site community association, a vital part of the position requires monitoring the facilities (Parkhouse, pool, meeting rooms, and community events) and ensuring they are in tip-top shape.  One thing for sure, you won’t be staring at the top of your desk all day long! 

This non-exempt position will: 
• manage all customer service inquiries (are you good with people, even those who have turned their smile upside down?);
• take walks to ensure the landscape is esthetically pleasing and maintained by the contracted landscape company (do you have a good pair of walking shoes?);
• upon returning from the ‘great outdoors’ be able to input the information into the computer system (Got skills?)
• occasionally take a drive through the community, or head to the store performing errands (is your California driver’s license current and you possess the State mandated insurance?)
• and, work within a cohesive team atmosphere to ensure the community vision is being supported by the highest level of service

As you can see, this isn’t your usual paper-pushing office job.  It has paper, and certainly you will have to do some pushing, but it’s topped off with a variety of assignments that will keep the job interesting and rarely dull.  In fact, if you are the successful candidate, and someone asks you ‘what’s your typical day like?’ you can truthfully say “My day is never predictable!”  

If that sounds like music to your ears, contact us and see if this position can make your work life more interesting.
