Maintenance Team Leader

Property Maintenance Team Lead

at Evernest

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Build Systems. Drive Results. Lead the Future of Maintenance Operations.

At Evernest, we don't just manage homes—we're redefining property management. With over 24,000 properties under management across 50+ markets, we're on a bold path to manage 250,000 homes by 2030. That means thinking bigger, building smarter, and operating at scale.

We're looking for a Property Maintenance Team Lead to own performance, drive innovation, and build high-performing systems for our Property Services Team. You'll lead a group of field technicians and oversee in-house maintenance, renovation execution, and vendor coordination in one of our fastest-growing regions.

This is not a "keep the lights on" job—it's a strategic leadership role where your ability to think in systems, solve problems at the root, and lead with accountability will directly shape our success.

What You'll Do

Build and Lead a Top-Tier Property Services Team

• Lead and develop a team of field techs, vendor partners, and coordinators across multiple markets.
• Run weekly L10s to ensure alignment, accountability, and issue-solving.

Drive Operational Excellence

• Own and improve key performance indicators (KPIs):

  Avg. WO lifespan- 10 days

Lead with Initiative
