Floor Technician - Environmental Services Team

You bring the shine. We bring the support.

Are you someone who takes pride in clean, polished, and well‑cared‑for spaces? Do you love seeing floors go from "meh" to "WOW"? We're looking for a Floor Care Technician who's ready to roll (literally!) with a team that values quality, safety, and a job well done.

In this role, you'll be the go‑to pro for keeping our facility's floors in top shape—from glossy hallways to spotless patient rooms. You'll operate cool equipment, tackle hands‑on projects, and help us maintain a clean, safe environment for everyone who walks through our doors. And when needed, you'll jump in to support our Environmental Services team to keep the whole place running smoothly.

• Follow a floor care schedule to keep surfaces looking sharp and squeaky clean.
• Operate a variety of floor machines—think buffers, scrubbers, polishers, extractors—safely and efficiently.
• Strip, wax, refinish, and maintain all types of floors throughout the building.
• Tackle project work like deep cleans and spot‑treatments as assigned.
• Pitch in with general housekeeping duties when needed—because teamwork makes the dream work.
• Read and understand labels on cleaning supplies to stay safe and smart.
• Communicate professionally with patients, visitors, and teammates—we're all in this together!

• A friendly, team‑player attitude and strong work ethic.
• Solid communication skills in English—both speaking and reading.
• Physical strength and stamina to lift 50+ pounds safely and work on your feet for a full shift.
• Experience bending, stooping, and hustling hard during floor projects (stripping/refinishing takes some effort!).
• Comfort with using powered equipment like vacuums, buffers, and scrubbers—and keeping them in tip‑top shape.
• A knack for following safety guidelines and infection control standards.
• Willingness to learn—and to pass a competency assessment within your first 30‑60 days on the job.

• 6+ months of floor care or Environmental Services experience (especially in healthcare or similar settings).

• High School Diploma or GED.

• You're part of a mission that matters—keeping patients, staff, and visitors safe and healthy.
• Every day is different—new spaces, new projects, new challenges.
• You get to see the immediate results of your work—clean floors feel good!
• Supportive team, strong training, and chances to grow.

Sound like a good fit? Let's get rolling—apply today and bring your shine to our team!
