We are seeking a dependable, experienced, and self-directed person to help maintain and improve a private 17-acre residential property in Millcreek and nearby office.
The role includes facilities maintenance, repairs, painting, carpentry, landscaping, seasonal work, equipment operation, and property-improvement projects across the home, office, barn, pond, grounds, trails, and woods.
This is a physical, hands-on role. Candidates should be comfortable safely operating tractors, loaders, mowers, tillers, chainsaws, weed eaters, trailers, power tools, and related equipment.
