ABOUT THE HENRY KAUFMANN CAMPGROUNDS

As a seasonal organization, HKC hires 90 or so workers that provide maintenance and janitorial services, aquatics supervision and security to ensure we can carry out our mission to provide a safe environment and meet the needs of the camps who call HKC home.

Our philosophy for success is to focus on the employee experience and ensure our staff have the training, tools and support they need to achieve excellence.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF THE ASSISTANT SITE SUPERINTENDENT

The Assistant Site Superintendent of Buildings & Grounds, reporting to the Property Manager, is involved in the preventative maintenance planning for the property and vehicle maintenance. On a weekly and daily basis, the ASSBG will manage the work order management system (CMMS).

There is a cycle to the work based on the season (winterizing in the fall, planning and deep cleaning or repair in the winter, preparing for camp in the spring, and maintaining in the summer) but there are always regular tasks to be done regardless of the season. Each week brings its own challenges, and adjustments will always need to be made based upon the weather.

As a hands-on position, on any given day the Assistant Site Superintendent might be mowing, painting, repairing a vehicle, handling a water or sewage issue, removing trash or blowing leaves and using such equipment as backhoe, tractor, skid steer, ride-on deck mower or 3-wheel groomer.

See the attached job description for more details.
