City of Santa Monica
City of Santa Monica, California, United States
Job Summary Maintains and repairs the City’s water distribution system; installs, repairs, and maintains meters, valves, and related water system components; and performs related work as required. Positions in the Water Maintenance Worker class series are flexibly staffed; positions at the II-level may be filled by advancement from the I-level through a recruitment process. The Water Maintenance Worker I salary range is $58,908 to $72,720 annually. The Water Maintenance Worker II salary range is $64,788 to $79,992 annually. DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS Water Maintenance Worker I : This is the entry-level classification in the Water Maintenance Worker series. Initially under close supervision, incumbents learn and perform routine tasks in the construction, maintenance, and repair of water systems. As experience is gained, assignments become more varied, complex, and difficult; close supervision and frequent review of work lessen as an incumbent demonstrates skill to perform the work independently. Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the II-level, but they are not expected to function at the same skill level and usually exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods. Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise. Water Maintenance Worker II : This is the fully qualified journey-level classification in the Water Maintenance Worker series. Positions at this level are distinguished from the Water Maintenance Worker I by the performance of the full range of duties as assigned, working independently, and exercising judgment and initiative. Positions at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit. This class is distinguished from the Water Utility Worker in that the latter performs the more complex work assigned, including providing direction and monitoring the work activities of staff, requiring additional training and certification.
