Maintenance Intern Opportunity
At First State Community Bank there are over 60 buildings maintained as part of our operation across the state of Missouri. To keep them in superior shape we retain a maintenance crew of three full time personnel that assist with everything from drilling safe deposit boxes to branch remodels.

* Working with the maintenance team to ensure work areas are clean

* Troubleshoot and addresses basic repairs and maintenance including electrical, carpentry, plumbing, masonry, glazier, and painting tasks
