Lead Maintenance Technician - Capital Crest at Godley Station

Maintenance leadership at a multifamily property is a compounding role. The skills you build here, from managing turn schedules and contractor relationships to reading a property's mechanical systems deeply, translate directly into regional maintenance roles, facilities management, and even asset management support work. Capital Crest at Godley Station is where Olympus Property is looking for someone ready to own that progression.

What This Role Actually Requires

The Lead Maintenance Technician here functions as the de facto maintenance supervisor for the community. You're not just fixing things; you're running the service operation. That means scheduling your team's daily, weekly, and monthly workloads, coordinating with outside contractors, tracking service requests through property management software, and keeping the shop organized and stocked. Turn-key operations are a core part of the job: making sure vacant units are move-in ready on schedule, working closely with the office staff and Business Manager so show units stay sharp and lease-up momentum doesn't stall because of a slow make-ready.

You'll also own the property's preventative maintenance calendar, covering HVAC systems, irrigation, pools, appliances, and building exteriors. Monthly, quarterly, and annual inspections are yours to manage and document. On the compliance side, you're expected to keep operations aligned with applicable state, federal, and local regulations, which in a coastal Georgia market means staying attentive to moisture, humidity-related issues, and the wear patterns that come with that climate.

The schedule is full-time Monday through Friday, roughly 9 to 5, with on-call availability expected. EPA/HVAC certification is required coming in, along with at least three years of residential or apartment maintenance experience, ideally with some supervisory exposure.

Where This Role Can Take You

Strong Lead Techs at portfolio companies like Olympus tend to move into Regional Maintenance Director tracks or transition into property operations roles when they develop fluency in the business side, occupancy, NOI impact of deferred maintenance, capex planning. The candidates who stand out aren't just technically sharp; they're the ones who communicate proactively with leasing staff, catch issues before they become work orders, and treat the service team as something worth developing rather than just directing.

• EPA/HVAC certification (required)
• Minimum three years of residential or commercial maintenance experience
• Demonstrated experience supervising or leading maintenance staff
• Comfort with property management software for tracking service requests and inventory
• On-call availability

Starting pay is $56,160 annually, with monthly and quarterly bonus eligibility. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k) with employer matching, tuition reimbursement, an apartment rental allowance, and a sabbatical program. Olympus has held the National Apartment Association's Top Employer designation three consecutive years, which reflects something real about how the company thinks about its people.
