Facility Maintenance Supervisor
Position:
The Round Lake Area Park District is seeking a hands-on, team-oriented leader to serve as our Facility Maintenance Supervisor. This full-time role is ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and takes pride in maintaining safe, clean, and high-quality facilities for the community.
The Facility Maintenance Supervisor oversees the day-to-day maintenance and operations of District facilities, ensuring all spaces are well-maintained, functional, and welcoming. This position leads by example—balancing supervisory responsibilities with active, hands-on involvement in maintenance tasks and facility improvements.
Key responsibilities include planning and coordinating maintenance schedules, overseeing repairs and capital improvements, and responding to facility needs as they arise. The Supervisor serves as the primary point of contact for maintenance requests and is expected to respond to after-hours emergencies as needed.
This role also provides leadership and direction to a team of full-time and part-time staff through training, mentoring, and daily support. We're looking for a leader who leads by example — someone who brings a positive, professional attitude to every task, big or small, and inspires their team to do the same. A strong work ethic, clear and respectful communication, and a willingness to roll up your sleeves alongside your crew are essential to success in this role.
If you enjoy variety, teamwork, and making a real impact, we'd love to hear from you!
