Job Description

Evening/Weekend Porter hours at Gorton Community Center are from late afternoon (3pm onwards) until all public patrons have exited the building, Monday to Friday, and at various times on the weekend. Porters report to the Facilities Manager or their designee.

The role is service-oriented, requiring comfort with the public and a willingness to assist tenants and clients. Familiarity with basic audio-visual systems or a willingness to learn is necessary. Hours vary, and set days may change to accommodate events and staff schedules. Candidates should be eager to learn new skills, proactive, reliable, outgoing, and have a good sense of humor.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Manage setup and takedown during each shift, including tables, chairs, audio-visual equipment, LCD projectors, and screens, following posted schedules.
  • Assist clients with unforeseen needs and be available for support.
  • After events, restore rooms to their original state or set up for the next event as per the floor plan.
  • Inspect and clean rooms to prepare for the next day.
  • Set up for morning meetings if scheduled for the following day.
  • Replace light bulbs as needed.
  • Remove garbage from rental rooms and public areas, and dispose of trash appropriately, replacing plastic bags.
