Job Description
Plumber
Are you the kind of person who can spot a leak before it becomes a flood—and
actually enjoys fixing it? We’re looking for a skilled, hands-on Plumbing
Maintenance Professional who takes pride in keeping critical systems flowing
smoothly. In this role, you’ll go beyond the basics of general maintenance to
become a go‑to expert for plumbing systems that keep our hospital and affiliated
properties running safely, efficiently, and comfortably for patients, staff, and
visitors alike.
You’ll install, maintain, and repair plumbing fixtures, piping, pumps, and
related systems across patient rooms, offices, and other hospital spaces—and
occasionally take your expertise on the road to support off‑site, hospital‑owned
properties. From preventative maintenance and emergency fixes to offering
insight on future facility needs, you’ll play a key role in protecting our
infrastructure. Along the way, you’ll document your work, help train new team
members, collaborate on performance improvement initiatives, and contribute to
smart, budget‑conscious decisions. If you enjoy variety, responsibility, and
making a real difference behind the scenes, this could be the perfect fit.
Providence caregivers are not simply valued – they’re invaluable. Join our team
at Covenant Health System and thrive in our culture of patient-focused,
