CHICAGOLAND HANDYMAN OPPORTUNITIES!
Attention Handymen & Maintenance Techs - consider these three questions:
* Do you enjoy tackling different tasks every day?
* Do you embrace our core value: "GSD"?
* Are you looking for a stable, growing team in Residential Property Management?
If you answered YES to all three, you might be exactly who we're looking for!
Why Join GC Realty & Development?
We manage over 1,500 homes and small multi-unit properties around Chicagoland, and we're known for being fast, responsive, and just a little different from the rest. We offer stability and opportunities for our team members to grow along with us!
We don't do "just OK." We fix it right the first time, communicate clearly, and always look for ways to improve. If that sounds like you, keep reading.
What You'll Do
* Start your day from home-we send you your schedule the night before
* Handle 3-5 jobs a day at a mix of homes, apartments, and townhomes
* Tackle a wide range of tasks:
* Plumbing (drips, clogs, swaps)
* HVAC (filters, simple fixes, thermostats)
* Electrical (light switches, outlets, fixtures)
* Drywall (patch it, sand it, paint it)
* General repairs and make-readies
* Upload notes and photos from each job on the company phone (we give you the phone)
* Communicate throughout the day with dispatch and teammates-no one's left hanging
* Speak up when you see something off-we trust your eyes in the field
* Wrap up and head home knowing you actually made a difference
What You Bring
* 2-4 years of residential maintenance experience (more is great)
* Solid hands-on skills across multiple trades
* Your own tools, a reliable vehicle, and a valid driver's license
* Comfort with mobile tech-we use apps to keep things moving
* Trade certifications (plumbing, HVAC, electrical) are a bonus
* The ability to manage your time, handle curveballs, and finish strong
* A mindset that says: "No excuses. Let's solve it."
What You Get
* Hourly pay: $20-$30 based on experience
* Gas stipend OR Company Vehicle: $150/week OR vehicle if available
* Performance-Based Compensation:
Earn up to 7%, additionally paid out monthly
* Full benefits package: medical, dental, vision, life, disability
* Paid time off: 10 days, plus your birthday off
* 7 paid holidays
* 401(k) with company plan
* Up to $500/year to read books through our Better Book Club
The GC Realty Experience
We've been doing property management for over 21 years-and we've built a reputation on being the team that shows up, solves the problem, and follows through. Our maintenance techs are the backbone of that promise.
Our values aren't just on a poster somewhere. We live them:
Own It - Take full responsibility and follow through
GSD - (No, really)
Better Results - Don't just fix it-make it better
Responsive - Communicate clearly and act quickly
