Property and Facilities Manager – Camp Kadesh

This is an archive of a previous posting; the position is no longer accepting applications.

Camp Kadesh is seeking a new member of our team to give leadership to the maintenance and development of our property and facilities. An ideal candidate will have a passion for Christian camp ministry, be a joy‑filled follower of Jesus, understand the importance of a beautiful and safe property, and have the ability to manage multiple immediate and long‑term projects. This person should have a diverse background of technical experience and the confidence and patience to solve problems as they occur.

Reporting to the Executive Director and working in cooperation with the full‑time staff, an ideal candidate will be a team player who helps our team continue to grow Camp Kadesh into one of the best camps in Canada. This position will oversee the maintenance of many buildings that are over 40 years old and are in a refurbishing process, while also giving input and leadership to future building and development of our property and facilities as we grow.

Key Responsibilities

- Maintenance: Lead preventative and urgent maintenance of all existing property, vehicles and facilities.
- Manage seasonal grounds maintenance (remove/install waterfront, grass, snow blowing, etc.).
- Cooperate with directors to maintain all program equipment.
- Operations: Management of inventory of maintenance and janitorial supplies.
- Training and oversight of seasonal staff janitorial duties (delegated and actual).
- Manage and maintain Class 2 water plant and Class 1 water distribution system.
- Development: Be involved in the strategic planning for development of property and facilities.
- Oversee or direct ongoing development of property and facilities.




- Be willing to participate in the development of young staff on both a skill and personal level.

Qualifications

- Able to prioritize and manage (and/or delegate) multiple maintenance, construction and janitorial tasks.
- Experience crafting and managing significant areas of budget.
- Hold a valid Saskatchewan Class 5 license (or another provincial equivalent).
- Hold a valid Pleasure Craft Operator Card (or be willing to acquire).
- Experience with heavy machinery – specifically skid‑steer loader.
- Hold (or be willing to acquire) CPR, AED, and First Aid certification.
- Ability to do highly physical labour as needed.
- A mature Christian, able to agree with the Camp Kadesh statements of faith and values.
- Agree to the Mission and Purpose of Camp Kadesh.

NOTE: A candidate with a Class 2 Water Treatment and Class 1 Water Distribution certificate would be highly desirable, but Camp Kadesh would provide access to training to obtain the qualification.

Compensation

Total starting compensation for this position is $45,000 - $55,000. The compensation package includes a combination of salary, housing (or housing allowance), internet, a camp‑provided cell phone with unlimited data/calling, and food during most events at camp (most meals in May–August and when groups are present). It also includes a benefits package and, after one year, contributions to a pension plan (5% of salary) with three weeks of vacation.



Final compensation will be calculated based on total experience, ability and certifications. This salary position is primarily about 35 hours per week in slower seasons, but compensation assumes that prime seasons will require more hours as needed.

For more information, please contact Tim Positive (Director) or send a resume and cover letter via email.

At this point we are looking for the RIGHT candidate to fill the position and have no specific start date in mind.
