Porter, Maintenance​/Cleaning

Full Time Manual Labor Kirtland, OH, US

Salary Range: $18.00 To $20.00 Hourly

GLR Companies is hiring a Porter to support grounds and common‑area upkeep across a multi‑site multifamily portfolio of 102 units, plus a small portfolio of single‑family and duplex homes, in Northeast Ohio.

GLR Companies, Inc. is a full‑service, third‑party property management firm headquartered in Northeast Ohio. We manage multifamily communities, commercial properties, and community associations, and we hold every asset to a hands‑on operational standard. We are active operators, not absentee managers. Our leadership walks properties, knows the work, and holds itself to the same standards we ask of our teams. We are growing, and we are building the team that grows with us.

You will travel across a mixed portfolio — a 102‑unit multifamily community and a small portfolio of scattered‑site single‑family and duplex homes — keeping common areas, grounds, and curb appeal to a consistent, resident‑ready standard at every location. This is a floating role: no single home site, but a route across multiple properties based on daily and weekly assignments. Mileage between properties is paid.

• Common Area Upkeep: Clean and maintain hallways, breezeways, laundry rooms, community rooms, offices, and other shared spaces across sites on a set schedule
• Grounds Maintenance: Pick up litter and debris, maintain curb appeal, and keep parking lots, walkways, and entrances clean and presentable at every property
• Trash & Recycling: Manage dumpster and trash corral areas, remove trash from common areas, and keep disposal sites clean and orderly across locations
• Scattered‑Site Support: Maintain curb appeal and light exterior upkeep at the single‑family and duplex homes in the portfolio
• Seasonal Work: Support snow removal, salting, leaf removal, and other seasonal grounds work across all sites as needed
• Move‑Out/Turn Support: Assist with trash‑outs, light cleaning, and debris removal to support unit turns and the make‑ready process
• Inspection Support: Help keep common areas, grounds, and home exteriors prepared for municipal, insurance, lender, and internal inspections
• Light Maintenance Assistance: Support the maintenance team with basic tasks such as light bulb replacement, minor repairs, and moving supplies or equipment as directed
• Safety: Follow safety and OSHA standards; report hazards, damage, or maintenance needs promptly

• Prior experience in janitorial, custodial, grounds, or porter work preferred; multifamily/scattered‑site experience a plus
• Reliable, thorough, and detail‑oriented work habits
• Ability to manage your own route and schedule across multiple locations with minimal supervision
• Comfortable working outdoors in all seasons and conditions
• Valid driver’s license, clean driving record, and reliable transportation (required — this is a traveling, multi‑site role)

Ability to lift and carry up to 50 lbs.; climb ladders and stairs; stand, walk, bend, kneel, and reach for extended periods; and work indoors and outdoors in all Northeast Ohio weather conditions, including snow removal in winter months. Reasonable accommodations will be made in accordance with applicable law.

• Competitive pay
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off (PTO) with per‑pay‑period accrual
• Eleven (11) paid holidays plus one (1) floating holiday
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Mileage reimbursement for travel between sites
• Paid training and a clear growth path across a growing portfolio
