Cleaner - Part-Time

Redstone Residential runs one of the larger third-party student housing platforms in the country, with over 38,000 beds spread across 20 states. Their Rexburg property sits squarely in student housing territory, which means the cleaning and groundskeeping work here has a rhythm that's distinct from conventional multifamily. Turns happen fast, common areas take real abuse, and curb appeal matters to prospects who are often visiting for the first time with their parents in tow.

This is a part-time, non-exempt role paying $12.00 per hour. The shift length runs four to six hours, and you'll spend most of that time on your feet. The work covers the full scope of property cleanliness: common areas, hallways, parking structures, grounds, and scheduled cleaning checks inside residents' apartments. That last piece is worth noting. Resident cleaning checks aren't standard at every property, but in student housing they're common, and doing them well requires a combination of consistency, documentation, and the ability to interact professionally with residents even when the feedback isn't what they want to hear.

Day to day, you're making sure the property looks sharp before prospects walk in, picking up debris and animal waste from the grounds, keeping the clubhouse and leasing office presentable, handling basic landscaping upkeep, and clearing snow and ice when Rexburg winters demand it. Some light maintenance assistance comes with the role as well. Nothing here requires a trades background, but the ability to work through a task list independently is genuinely important. This isn't a role with a supervisor walking alongside you every hour.

In student housing, curb appeal and common area condition directly affect traffic and leasing velocity. A clean, well-maintained property photographs better, tours better, and retains residents better. Porters and cleaners quietly support occupancy in ways that don't always get acknowledged.

Redstone offers 401(k) with up to 6% matching, which is a real benefit for a part-time hourly position.

What they're looking for

• Some janitorial or cleaning experience, even informal
• Ability to work through daily tasks without needing constant direction
• Physical capability to lift 50+ pounds and stand for a full shift
• A genuinely friendly approach with residents and team members

Candidates who tend to stand out in roles like this are the ones who take ownership of their section of the property without being asked twice. In student housing, that self-direction matters more than in some other environments. If you're looking to get a foot in the door with a growing national operator, this is a legitimate way to do it.
