Maintenance Associate
Description
Maintenance Associate – Grocery Basket, Grenada, MS
Grocery Basket has served Grenada since 1976, and we take pride in a store that's clean, safe and welcoming every day. We're looking for a dependable, hands-on Maintenance Associate to keep our building, equipment and grounds in top shape.
This is an objective-based role. Each week and each month you'll have a set list of maintenance objectives to complete. You're measured on getting them done, so small problems get caught before they turn into expensive ones. You'll also handle repairs assigned by management. You'll report directly to the General Manager.
You'll be the store's first call on maintenance decisions. When a job is beyond in-house repair, you'll decide whether to bring in an outside specialist (refrigeration, electrical, HVAC or plumbing contractor) and recommend it to management. Outside service calls require management approval before they're scheduled.
What you'll own:
• Refrigeration, ice machine and HVAC filters
• Shopping carts and rolling equipment
• Floor scrubber and buffer
• Lighting, doors, signage and restroom plumbing
• Landscaping, sidewalks and curb appeal
• Fire extinguisher checks and flag upkeep
Why you'll like working here:
• Benefits, including health insurance and 401(k) options, once eligibility requirements are met
• Full-time, four-day week (Monday through Thursday) with on-call coverage Friday through Sunday
• Steady, varied work. No two days are the same.
• A local, family-run store where your work is noticed
• Clear weekly and monthly objectives, so you always know what success looks like
• Real ownership of maintenance decisions, with a direct line to the GM
