Who We Are

Zen Residential is one of Western Canada’s fastest-growing residential property management companies, managing thousands of multifamily homes across Alberta and Saskatchewan. We’re built on strong operational practices, a proactive approach to building management, and a genuine commitment to creating secure, well-maintained communities for our residents.

The Role

We are looking for a reliable and physically capable Facilities Porter to join our Facilities Management and Operations team in Calgary. This is an entry-level, hands-on support role. No trade certification or prior maintenance experience is required.

As a Facilities Porter, you will support our maintenance and leasing teams across multiple properties in the Calgary area. You won’t be permanently stationed at one building. Instead, you’ll be deployed wherever the work is, which keeps the role varied and gives you exposure to a wide range of properties and tasks.

What You’ll Do

- Provide light maintenance support, including minor non-trade repairs, fixture and filter changes, and assisting maintenance technicians on larger jobs.
- Clean and maintain common areas, amenity spaces, hallways, and parkades.
- Assist with move-out and suite turnover cleaning support.
- Perform groundskeeping tasks, including litter pickup, snow and ice clearing, salting, and basic landscaping upkeep.
- Assist with unit walk-throughs and routine property inspections, documenting observations for technicians and supervisors.
- Deliver tenant notices and move documents or supplies between sites as directed.
- Perform general labour and other tasks as assigned by your supervisor.

This role does not include licensed or trade-certified work such as electrical, gas, boiler,



or life-safety system work. If you’re looking to grow into a technical maintenance career, this is a great first step. What We’re Looking For

- A valid driver’s licence and a reliable personal vehicle, insured for business use. This is required, not a preference. You will be travelling between properties regularly as part of the job.
- Ability to perform physical work, including lifting and carrying up to approximately 50 lbs, standing and walking for extended periods, bending, kneeling, and working outdoors throughout the year.
- Comfortable working at multiple sites and adapting to different tasks day to day.
- Basic reading and written communication skills sufficient to follow instructions, use a company phone, and post tenant notices accurately.
- No prior maintenance experience or trade certification required. We will train you on our systems and processes.

What We Offer

- Hands on training and support. You do not need previous property maintenance experience. We will help you learn our properties, systems, processes, and expectations.
- Variety in your workday. You will work across different properties and take on a range of maintenance, property upkeep, turnover, and operational tasks.

- Broad industry experience. Working across the portfolio gives you exposure to building operations, residential property management,



maintenance, leasing support, and site operations.
- Opportunities to learn from experienced team members. You will work alongside Maintenance and Operations professionals and property teams with a range of technical and operational experience.
- A company phone and the tools needed to stay connected.

You will have access to the systems used to receive assignments, communicate with the team, and document your work.

- Opportunities for growth. As you gain experience and demonstrate strong performance, there may be opportunities to develop further within Maintenance and Operations or explore other areas of residential property management based on your strengths and interests.
- A growing organization. As Zen continues to expand, there are opportunities to take on new responsibilities and build your career alongside the company.

Working Conditions This is primarily a daytime role during regular business hours. You will travel between properties by personal vehicle as a standard part of the workday.

The role involves both indoor and outdoor work across all seasons.
