Facilities Technician I

Location:

Filoli Historic House & Garden (Woodside, CA)

Hourly Rate Range: $35.00 - $37.00 (depending on experience)

Schedule:

Full-Time (Typically Wednesday–Sunday, 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM)

Are you someone who loves to be active, works well with your hands, and enjoys seeing the immediate impact of your work? We’re looking for a Facilities Technician I to join our hardworking and supportive team!

In this role, you’re more than just a maintenance worker—you are a steward of history. You’ll be the behind-the-scenes hero making sure our world-class events run smoothly and our historic estate stays in tip-top shape for our visitors.

Every day at Filoli is a little different! You’ll jump between event prep, logistics, and keeping the property running:

• Setting the Stage:
  You’ll be the muscle behind our weddings, festivals, and galas—setting up tables, moving furniture, and hanging lights to create magical moments for our guests.
• Estate Caretaker:
  Help out with "fix-it" projects like painting, basic carpentry, clearing a clogged drain, or changing out HVAC filters. It’s a great way to learn a little bit of everything!
• The Logistics Pro:
  You’ll handle the incoming deliveries (everything from garden fountains to gift shop treasures), manage recycling, and keep the grounds clean and safe for everyone.
• Into the Great Outdoors:
  You’ll get to help with seasonal fieldwork like brush clearing and mowing, ensuring the 654-acre estate looks its absolute best.

• A Workspace Like No Other:
  Forget a stuffy office—you’ll be working in one of the most beautiful gardens and historic sites in California.
• Room to Grow:
  This is an entry-level position designed for someone who wants to learn. You’ll work alongside pros who are happy to share their knowledge of specialized trades.
• Great Benefits:
  We’ve got you covered with medical, dental, vision, a 401(k) plan, and a generous package of vacation, sick leave, and holiday pay.
• A True Team:
  We value collaboration, high standards, and a friendly, "can-do" attitude.

• A Little
  
  Experience:
  
  You have 1–3 years of experience in building or property maintenance. If you know your way around a toolbox or have done some basic plumbing or carpentry, you’re off to a great start!
• Energy & Attitude:
  You’re a self-starter who stays calm under pressure and loves solving problems.
• Physical Strength:
  You’re comfortable being on your feet, climbing ladders, and walking across uneven terrain. You should be able to lift and carry up to 60 lbs.
• Tech-Friendly:
  You can use a computer for basic emails and checking your schedule/work orders.
• The Basics:
  You have a high school diploma (or GED), a valid Driver’s License, and the flexibility to work weekends to support our busy event season.
