||| FROM LENA KASSA for ORCAS SENIOR CENTER |||


We are hiring! Join the Orcas Senior Center (OSC) team as our Home Maintenance and Repair (HM&R) Coordinator. This is a contracted position, not an employee position.

As OSC moves this important program from the “pilot” phase to becoming a core offering of the center, we are seeking someone who can continue to coordinate and grow the program.

The Orcas Senior Center HM&R Coordinator serves a “facilitator” function that provides timely access to competent and reliable contractors for seniors and persons with disabilities. The purpose of the HM&R Coordinator position is to allow seniors and adults with disabilities to age safely in place because their residences are safe and in good repair.

Pay and time requirement: The Coordinator will be paid a flat rate retainer fee of $250/week for 0 to 4 hours, regardless of the number of hours actually worked, but with the expectation that this will cover up to four hours per week of coordination, depending on the number of client requests. Additional hours will be paid at a rate of $55/hour with pre-approval from the OSC Programs and Community Services Manager. Successful candidates will be licensed, bonded, and insured. In addition, candidates must pass a background check and list Orcas Senior Center as additionally insured on their liability policy.

To apply for the position, please send an email to admin@orcasseniors.org expressing your interest.
