This is a Five Hundred and Twenty Eight Bed community full of college students, their pets, and their maintenance needs.

We could play up all the great things about the property (and there are a lot), while keeping the dirty deets under wraps. But that’s not who we are.

Progress 910 has earned its place as a top student housing complex in Wilmington, NC. We have a 110,000 gallon pool, sand volleyball court, controlled access doors, pet friendly apartments, outdoor gas grills, gas fire pit, an updated gym, pool tables, hammock gardens, you name it... we got it. And you already know what that means.

It means power washing, changing air filters, combing the sand courts, picking up broken glass, repairing a washer that was overloaded, unclogging a sink, replacing light bulbs, swapping the batteries in smoke detectors, pulling beer cans out of the pond that Billy Bob and his friends decided would be a good target last weekend.

Oh yeah, we’d also like you to manage a team of technicians, grow them under your guidance, get along with our residents and work in harmony with the front office team.

Are you still there? Good. Now here is why it’s worth it.

Let’s start with the most important:

• Our supervisors are provided with a generous and competitive salary.
• Our supervisors also have access to medical, dental and vision benefits
• Plenty of vacation days, as well as paid sick time.
• You think that’s it? NOPE. Let’s say you really hustled all year. You completed every work order, you worked well with the General Manager to keep residents happy, you retained your technicians and developed their skills. I mean, you laughed at Becky in 301-A’s joke about her water heater for crying out loud. You know what? You just got a bonus. Mhm. And you earned it.

Progress 910 is owned and operated by a couple of brothers whose goal is to see you succeed. They truly want their employees to be just as happy and satisfied as their residents. They didn’t want a run of the mill ad listing requirements, competencies, objectives, expectations, blah blah blah. They wanted someone who clicks right in with the culture here. Go to our website. Come visit the clubhouse. Everywhere you look the message is that we Live Different. Not just the residents but the employees too. We seek out people who we think could pick up what we’re puttin’ down. Someone that doesn’t meet expectations but exceeds them. Not because they feel like they have to but because they want to. Because it feels better to plop on the couch after you’ve given it all you got that day.

The job requirements are pretty straightforward. What’s difficult is finding someone with the corresponding work ethic. And to make this role harder to fill, we prefer to hire people that make us smile. Because if you’re going to be spending at least 40 hours of your week here, you might as well have a sense of humor.

Talk soon.
