Building Maintenance Technician wanted at Steele Chevrolet: Hundreds of Doors, One Opportunity!

At Steele Auto Group, our buildings are more than walls and floors; they are the backbone of everything we do. Steele Chevrolet is a 120,000+ square foot automotive facility that sees constant traffic, hundreds of doors opening daily, thousands of light fixtures shining bright, walls with layers of paint, service bays in full swing, and a steady rotation of customers, vehicles, and team members.

With significant annual investments dedicated to maintaining this property, we are looking for the right person to take ownership to keep this building functional. We are looking for a certified tradesperson or experienced maintenance professional who sees more than a building, you see systems, structure, pride of ownership, and opportunity.

Investment & Return:

Every great property needs the right caretaker, and we believe in paying for skill and accountability.

Hourly Rate $20 to $25, based on experience and certification.

This is a full time, steady opportunity within one of Atlantic Canada’s largest dealer groups. We are looking for someone who wants consistency, ownership, and long term stability, not just a short-term contract.

Your Role: Facility & Building Expert

As our Building Maintenance Technician, you will:

• Maintain properties under NSPHA standards, including walks, driveways, and parking areas
• Carry out assessment and preventative maintenance on all assigned buildings, appliances, fixtures, utilities, and equipment, following established standards and procedures
• Conduct routine inspections and schedule or monitor inspections for fire, insurance, alarm systems, equipment, and more
• Perform minor repairs on windows, doors, switches, desks, tables, plugs, appliances, sinks, toilets, blinds, and other fixtures
• Patch and repair drywall, complete painting and touch-ups
• Clean and maintain light fixtures, replace bulbs and tubes
• Use hand and power tools, electric meters, and material handling equipment safely and effectively
• Liaise with contractors and external vendors as required
• Perform all other duties needed to keep the facility running smoothly

You will also support:

• Cleanliness of service bays, shop floors, storage areas, and exterior grounds
• Oil system monitoring and safe clean-up procedures
• Equipment moves, dealership displays, snow removal, lawn care, and general grounds upkeep

Who We are Looking For:

• A skilled tradesperson or experienced maintenance professional with hands-on building upkeep experience
• Confident with tools, practical problem solving, and tackling challenges head-on
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, active automotive service environment
• Takes pride in keeping systems running smoothly, spaces clean, and issues fixed before they become problems
• Dependable, punctual, and committed to safety

Dealership or industrial experience is an asset. Knowledge of oil handling systems is a bonus.

What You Bring:

• High school diploma, combined with at least five years of hands on experience in building or property maintenance, or a related trade environment
• Solid working knowledge of carpentry, basic plumbing, heating systems, painting, and drywall repair
• Understanding of commercial building systems, with familiarity in National Building Code standards and Occupational Health and Safety practices
• Confidence using electrical and mechanical tools safely and effectively
• Physical capability to perform active, hands on work

Why This Role Matters:

The building is the backbone of the business. When doors close properly, lights work, systems run smoothly, and the grounds are clean, the entire operation performs better. At Steele Chevrolet, this role is not just maintenance. It is stewardship of one of our largest and busiest facilities.

If you are someone who wants to reduce outsourcing, take control of ongoing projects, and leave your mark on a high traffic commercial property, we would love to talk.
