Beaufort County spotlights locksmith maintenance specialist opening with $28.41–$36.80 hourly range
Summary
Beaufort County’s facilities operations coordinator, Sonny McElhaney, described duties, training requirements and pay for a locksmith maintenance specialist opening, including a two-year commitment if the county pays detention-center training. Interested applicants were directed to a link on the broadcast and video bio.
Beaufort County aired a job-spotlight segment in which Sonny McElhaney, the county’s facilities operations coordinator, outlined duties and pay for an open locksmith maintenance specialist position.
McElhaney said the role includes "key cutting, master keying, installing hardware, door repair, [and] door closure maintenance," and that technicians will primarily handle detention-center tickets. He said the county will provide detention-center training for hires who lack it, but that those who take county-funded detention training must remain employed by Beaufort County for two years if they choose that option.
The position requires comfort with mobile and online tools. "Technicians will actually work out of their phone and submit and accept work orders through our PubWorks app," McElhaney said, adding that staff must search parts online, use email, and complete computer-based trainings as part of routine work.
Pay for the role is hourly and depends on qualifications; McElhaney gave a range of $28.41 to $36.80 per hour. He described the locksmith as primarily a solo position: technicians "work solo" but will collaborate with others as needed.
The segment closed with instructions for applicants: the host and McElhaney directed viewers to a link shown on-screen and to the YouTube video bio for the full job posting and application details. The county did not specify application deadlines or the number of openings in the broadcast.
No formal vote or action was taken during the segment; it was an informational recruitment piece.
