Custodial Lead, Special Events and Projects (2nd shift)

The Custodial Lead of Special Events and Projects plays a key role in keeping the WSU campus clean, disinfected, and safe while supporting the energetic flow of athletic, community, and special events that bring the university to life. This dynamic position adapts to shifting schedules, including weekends, evenings, and nontraditional hours, to ensure every event shines, from packed athletic games to campus wide celebrations. In addition to event support, this role also contributes to important campus projects such as floor refinishing, carpet extraction, deep restroom sanitization, and seasonal maintenance tasks that keep facilities in top condition.

With a robust benefits package effective on day one, generous paid time off, and the opportunity to directly support WSU’s most memorable moments, this role offers both meaningful impact and rewarding flexibility.

Custodian Specialist (2nd shift)

You’re the kind of person who takes pride in a gleaming hallway, a freshly waxed floor, and a vacuum that hums like new. You know your way around scrubbers, buffers, and carpet extractors, and when something breaks, you don’t just report it, you help fix it. You research parts and coordinate repairs to keep our custodial equipment running like a dream.

Assistant Director- TRIO Communication Upward Bound

Working with students, families, schools, and university partners, you’ll help create experiences that make college and future opportunities feel more accessible to the students you serve. You’ll build relationships throughout the school and community, collaborate with other TRIO programs and university departments, and help shape an academic-year curriculum that keeps students engaged, curious, and moving forward.
