Maintenance Supervisor

Most apartment maintenance supervisors spend their careers working for companies that bought the property last year and might sell it next year. Weinstein Properties has owned and managed its communities for over 70 years, still family-operated, which means the person running maintenance at a Nashville property is working for a company with genuine long-term skin in the game.

This opening is in the Nations/West Nashville area, a neighborhood that's seen significant residential growth. That means newer residents with higher expectations, and a property that needs a supervisor who keeps ahead of work orders rather than chasing them.

What the Job Actually Involves

This is a working supervisor role. You're not managing from a desk. You'll lead a service team through daily repairs and turns while staying hands-on yourself. The diagnostic work spans HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliances, drywall, carpentry, pool maintenance, and exterior structural issues. You'll schedule and oversee both in-house techs and outside vendors, manage work orders through business software, handle supply ordering, and keep the make-ready process moving so vacant units don't sit longer than they should.

On-call rotation is part of the job. You'll share it with teammates, and there's a bonus paid when you carry it, but after-hours calls happen and this role requires someone who accepts that without resentment. That's just the reality of apartment maintenance at this level.

Weinstein's stated approach ties maintenance performance directly to occupancy and rent collection. That's accurate. A slow punch list on a turn costs the property real money, and a pattern of unresolved resident requests shows up in reviews and renewals. The supervisor here carries real operational weight.

What Qualifies You

• At least 4 years of trade experience across the core disciplines (HVAC, plumbing, electrical)
• At least 1 year in a lead, assistant supervisor, or supervisor role in apartment maintenance specifically
• EPA/CFC certification, Type I and II or Universal (required, not preferred)
• Comfort with work order software, email communication, and basic scheduling tools
• Valid driver's license, your own transportation, and your own tools
• Willingness to participate in on-call rotation

The candidates who tend to thrive here are the ones who already think in terms of priority triage. On a Monday morning with six open work orders, two pending turns, and a vendor no-show, the question is which problem costs the property the most if it waits. Supervisors who've worked that muscle before step in with less ramp-up time.

Weinstein promotes from within and offers training for growth. For a maintenance supervisor looking to move into a regional or facilities director role over time, a long-tenured owner-operator with 60+ communities across multiple states offers a real path. The stability isn't just a selling point. It's the structure that makes internal advancement possible.

The position includes a sign-on bonus (details discussed during the interview), quarterly and annual bonus opportunities, health, dental and vision coverage, 401k, PTO, paid holidays, birthday time off, and a rent discount. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8 to 5, outside of on-call rotation.
