Maintenance Supervisor - Brix 325 Apartments

What You'll Actually Do

Brix 325 Apartments in Santa Rosa needs a Maintenance Supervisor who can own the physical operation of the community from the ground up. That means diagnosing and resolving maintenance issues across all trades, keeping make-ready turns moving on schedule, and managing the workflow of your maintenance team so service requests don't pile up and resident satisfaction stays high. You'll inspect completed work, hold regularly scheduled safety meetings, and maintain accurate records on preventive maintenance, work orders, and expenditures. When capital work or vendor coordination is needed, you'll work alongside the property manager to get it organized and executed.

This role covers a community of 150 or more units, so your ability to prioritize competing demands on any given day matters as much as your technical skills. A punch list that sits too long, a preventive maintenance schedule that slips, or a service request backlog that grows unchecked all show up in resident retention numbers and, eventually, NOI. The supervisor who keeps those metrics clean is the one who earns the team's trust and management's confidence.

What You Bring

• At least 2 years of experience in a Maintenance Supervisor role, with hands-on background across all major trades
• Prior experience at a property of 150 or more units
• Ability to diagnose issues independently and delegate appropriately to maintenance staff
• Strong organizational habits around work order systems, preventive maintenance logs, and expenditure tracking
• A customer service mindset that holds up even when residents are frustrated
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation

The Bigger Picture

MG Properties has been acquiring, developing, and managing apartment communities across the Western U.S. for over 30 years. They operate with a long-term ownership mentality, which means the maintenance program at a property like Brix 325 isn't just about fixing what's broken. It's about protecting asset value, keeping unit condition competitive in the Santa Rosa rental market, and reducing the kind of deferred maintenance that turns into expensive capital line items down the road.

Compensation runs $34 to $36 per hour depending on experience, with monthly bonuses and company profit sharing on top of that. Benefits include medical, dental, vision, a 401k with employer match, paid time off, paid holidays, paid sick time, and rental discounts. For a Maintenance Supervisor ready to run a tight operation at a well-capitalized owner-operator, this is a competitive package.

One practical note for candidates: strong supervisors in this type of role tend to separate themselves through documentation discipline. The ones who maintain clean PM records and accurate expenditure logs give management the visibility they need to plan budgets and avoid surprises. Technical ability gets you in the door. That operational consistency is what builds a long career in this seat.
