Job Description
Career.zycto is excited to recruit a dedicated and vigilant Caretaker to oversee the security and maintenance of a prominent property in La Louise, Quatre Bornes. This vital full-time role requires an individual who takes immense pride in ensuring a safe, clean, and well-maintained environment. As a Caretaker – Property & Guard Services, you will be the first line of defense and the guardian of our client’s valuable assets, contributing significantly to their operational efficiency and peace of mind.
This isn’t just a job; it’s a profound commitment to safeguarding a property and ensuring its continuous optimal condition. You will be entrusted with a dual responsibility: to provide a robust security presence and perform essential maintenance tasks. Your days will be dynamic, blending proactive security patrols with responsive general upkeep, ensuring the premises always present impeccably and remain secure against potential threats. We are looking for someone with an eagle eye for detail, a proactive approach to problem-solving, and an unwavering sense of responsibility. This role demands not only physical presence but also keen observational skills to identify and mitigate risks, whether they are security breaches or potential maintenance issues. You will be the eyes and ears on the ground, a critical asset in maintaining the integrity and value of the property.
Your dedication will directly impact the safety of the premises and the smooth functioning of operations within. This role is perfect for a self-starter who values autonomy while understanding the importance of adherence to established protocols. You will be responsible for upholding strict security standards, managing access, conducting regular inspections, and ensuring that all facilities are in perfect working order. If you are dependable, possess practical skills, and are ready to contribute to a secure and orderly environment where your efforts are visible and appreciated, we encourage you to apply. You will play a crucial role in maintaining the professional image and operational integrity of the property, working independently while also being a key part of a broader support network. This position demands a high degree of trustworthiness and a commitment to upholding the highest standards of property care and security. Your ability to respond calmly and effectively to situations, coupled with your meticulous approach to maintenance, will be paramount to success in this fulfilling role.
