Are you a maintenance and security professional who is looking for more meaning in your work?

PARC Retirement Living is an award-winning developer and operator of independent senior-living communities. We’re seeking a Night Housekeeper to join our Cedar Springs PARC team in North Vancouver.

About working at PARC

PARC communities are made for active seniors; inspiring spaces where our residents come to live well and engage with a vibrant community of like-minded people. Each of our residences is purpose-designed to give residents the freedom to live independently, nurturing their physical and mental well-being.

As a PARC Night Housekeeper, you are a caretaker of this vision, responsible for night-shift janitorial and safety/security duties. Most importantly, Night Housekeepers are the first responders in case of overnight emergencies.

This role includes:

• Cleaning and sanitizing common areas according to a pre-set schedule.
• Performing laundry services as needed.
• Answering phone calls and screening visitors at building entry points.
• Conducting security patrols and monitoring video surveillance to ensure resident and staff safety throughout the night.
• Responding to resident calls and emergencies; providing First Aid and contacting emergency services and the on-call manager as required.
• Logging and communicating overnight issues or occurrences.

• Meaningful work. How many hospitality jobs can say that? At PARC, you’ll be making a positive difference in seniors’ lives, each and every day.
• A true living wage. PARC is a Living Wage Certified Employer!
• Refreshments while you work. PARC’s chef-prepared cuisine rivals the best in BC, and we offer subsidized daily meals and beverages to employees.
• Flexible hours and location. We’re open to scheduling when and where it works for you – with guaranteed shifts every week. PARC has five great locations across the Lower Mainland.
• A supportive, diverse team and training opportunities. We believe in giving our people opportunities to advance wherever we can.

It takes a special kind of person to work here – does this sound like you?

• You’re an upbeat team member and customer-service professional who brings positive energy to all you do.
• You have at least one year of janitorial or housekeeping experience in the hospitality or senior-living industry.
• You have solid knowledge of security procedures. Building security training and/or completion of a Building Services Worker Program are assets, as well.
• You have completed Grade 12 or equivalent, and are able to read, write and effectively communicate in English.
• You possess current WHMIS, First Aid and CPR certifications. A Health Care Aide qualification and FOODSAFE Level 1 would be assets, too.
• You’re able to self-direct and work effectively with minimal supervision, and also respond to emergency situations effectively when required.
• You understand and respect the needs of seniors, their families, and and other professional services engaged with our residents.
