Facility Technician

Amerant Bank Arena, Sunrise, FL

Organization Overview:

The Florida Panthers are in their 33rd season in 2026-27 as one of the National Hockey League's premier franchises. As back-to-back Stanley Cup Champions in 2024 and 2025, the Panthers have won 11 of their past 12 postseason series and captured four Eastern Conference Championships. The organization is led by President of Hockey Operations & General Manager Bill Zito, entering his seventh season, and President of Business Operations Michael White, beginning his first full season.

Anchored by a championship culture on the ice, the Panthers are equally committed to building a world-class sports and entertainment platform off of it. The organization focuses on delivering an elite guest experience across all venues, deepening the connection between the team and the South Florida community and continuing to grow the sport for the next generation. The Panthers operate four facilities in Broward County: Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise which is home of Panthers home games, concerts and events, Panthers IceDen in Coral Springs, the state-of-the-art Baptist Health IcePlex in Fort Lauderdale and renovated War Memorial Auditorium which hosts concerts and events year-round. 

The Panthers are owned by Vincent J. Viola, a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point and a veteran of the U.S. Army. That foundation of selfless service shapes the organization's identity at every level. The Panthers' pillar program, "Heroes Among Us," honors a U.S. military veteran at every home game, and the Florida Panthers Foundation directs its efforts across four core pillars: veterans' affairs, children's health and education, raising awareness for the endangered Florida Panther and growing youth hockey throughout the region. The organization remains deeply committed to empowering and strengthening the diverse communities of South Florida and the tri-county area.

  • Assist with servicing refrigeration equipment (walk-ins, reach-ins, ice machines) under the guidance of full-time staff
  • Troubleshoot and repair basic plumbing fixtures
  • Perform general repairs (drywall, flooring, furniture assembly)
  • Monitor building systems during events and report issues to full-time engineering staff
  • Provide setup, changeover, and on-site support for events, contractors, and special projects
  • Follow safety protocols and maintain a clean, hazard-free environment
  • Complete and close out work orders using a computerized system
  • Assist with electrical troubleshooting and basic repairs

What We’re Looking For

  • High school diploma or GED
  • 1-2+ years in facilities maintenance, building trades, or a related field preferred
  • Basic proficiency with hand tools; willingness to learn additional trade skills on the job
  • Available to work a flexible, event-driven schedule, including nights, weekends, and holidays
  • Comfortable working at heights, in confined spaces, and around mechanical/electrical equipment with proper training
  • Strong work ethic, problem-solving skills, and attention to detail
  • Team-oriented with clear, professional communication skills

Why Join Us?
You’ll be part of a hands-on, fast-paced environment where every event brings new challenges. We value initiative, craftsmanship, and teamwork—and you’ll have the opportunity to build hands-on experience across multiple trades, with flexible hours that fit around your schedule.

At the Florida Panthers Hockey Club, Arena Operating Company, Panthers IceDen, Sanza Food Service, War Memorial Benefit Corporation, and FLA Team Shop, we strive to make every employee feel valued and respected for who they are and the unique contributions they make.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
