Description

The Plex is your premier destination for family fun, event planning, sports, dining, parties, and more. Our 3 operating businesses (The Plex Athletic Club, Sports, and Food & Beverage) offers 240,000 square feet of entertainment space under one roof where you will find everything you need for fun, fitness, family activities, food & beverage, parties, and social events. Open 7-days a week, our facility offers an arcade of games, bocce ball, bouncy houses, wall climbing, cornhole, darts, pizza, sushi, tapas, a vast beer wall and so much more.

We are seeking a hands-on, bilingual Working Lead Porter working to join our facilities team. This non-exempt part time (up to 25 weekly hours) position supports day-to-day cleaning operations while helping guide the porter team by example. You’ll ensure assigned areas are spotless, well-stocked, and fully operational—and help make sure the right people are in the right place at the right time when coverage needs arise.

This is not a desk job—this is a working lead role, perfect for someone who takes pride in both doing the work and supporting others to do it well.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Perform and lead daily cleaning duties: dusting, sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, and scrubbing surfaces according to The Plex’s cleanliness standards.

  • Clean and sanitize restrooms, locker rooms, and other high-traffic areas.

  • Empty trash, manage recyclables, and maintain overall cleanliness of designated spaces.

  • Ensure porter equipment, supplies, and chemicals are used and stored safely and in accordance with SDS guidelines.

  • Assist with minor repairs and promptly report maintenance or safety issues.

  • Help bus tables and support cleanup in the restaurant area and event spaces as needed.

  • Provide excellent member service—be visible, greet guests, and offer assistance when needed.

  • Follow porter duty checklists and help ensure tasks are completed thoroughly and on schedule.

  • Assist the Porter Supervisor with coordinating daily work assignments and helping find shift coverage for call-outs, under management direction.

  • Report incidents, accidents, or safety concerns immediately.

  • Perform other duties as assigned by the Porter Supervisor or Facilities Manager.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Knowledge of professional cleaning techniques and sanitation standards.

  • Ability to use and maintain cleaning tools, machines, and materials safely.

  • Strong attention to detail and time management skills.

  • Clear communicator and team player with a service-first mindset.

  • Comfortable supporting and helping coordinate day-to-day task flow.

  • Must be fluent in both English and Spanish to support effective communication with staff and members.

Qualifications:

  • High school diploma or equivalent.

  • 1–3 years of experience in janitorial, housekeeping, or custodial roles preferred.

  • Prior experience in a lead or support role is a plus but not required.

Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to walk, stand, bend, and stretch for extended periods.

  • Must be able to push/pull carts and lift up to 30 pounds.

  • Flexibility to work a varied schedule, including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
