m’s Answer

Facility Maintenance can look like a lot of things.
- Maintenance Manager
- Grounds Crew Maintenance
- Facility Technician
- Maintenance Worker
- Janitor
- Maintenance Technician / Engineer
- Equipment Maintenance
- Plumber
- HVAC
- Painting
- Floor Specialist

All of these jobs include maintaining grounds or a building to keep it looking its best. A lot of these positions are contracted, where you work with the building/grounds owner, to assist in keeping their property running properly. Salary/payment for each position varies greatly, as does demand and the amount of skill and certifications needed.

I would first start at looking at what types of jobs within Facility Maintenance look the most interesting, then finding training programs/certifications within your area to start learning more on what you'd need to land a job in that field.
