About Salem Green Apartments

Salem Green Apartments is a 320-unit residential apartment community in Inver Grove Heights, MN, set just off the shores of scenic Lake Schmidt. We’re a picturesque property with lots of mature landscaping, expansive and lush grounds, unique amenities (like an indoor pool!), and a variety of interesting studio – 3 bedroom floor plan layouts. Plus, we’re minutes from the grocery, retail, dining, arts, entertainment, and recreation options of Inver Grove Heights, West St. Paul, and Mendota Heights.

The Salem Green staff work closely together on a daily basis to maintain our community’s operations. With our combined experience and our unique personalities and skill sets, we create a super-team of multi-housing professionals!

Maintenance Technician: Job Overview

As a Maintenance Technician, you’ll enjoy working in a fast-paced environment where no day looks the same – providing hands-on service to current residents in addition to servicing the overall maintenance needs of the community. You’ll need an eye for detail, a passion for fixing things, and a knack for problem solving.

Having home maintenance taken care of is a big reason people continue to rent, and our maintenance team is constantly getting shout-outs in our online reviews and residents surveys. This means polite, professional communications skills are a must!

Dental care options
401K with employer match (after 6 months of employment)

On-site living reduces commute times and work costs for our staff, allowing them to focus on what matters – spending time with family, pursuing hobbies and interests, and enjoying life!

What You Provide

We are looking for someone with a positive attitude, genuine desire to do a good job, and an eagerness to learn; someone with a superior work ethic who enjoys fostering and building relationships; someone who takes pride in their daily work; and someone who is detail-oriented and goes the extra mile.
