• Develop and manage preventative maintenance programs designed to extend equipment life and minimize emergency repairs.
• Manage contractors, engineers, consultants, and service providers, including competitive bidding, contract negotiation, performance oversight, and invoice approval.
• Evaluate building systems and recommend repairs, replacements, and modernization projects based on condition, lifecycle, and cost effectiveness.
• Coordinate capital improvement, construction, and renovation projects from planning through completion.
• Assist with annual operating and capital budgets and support long-term maintenance and reserve planning.
• Identify opportunities to improve energy efficiency and reduce operating costs.
• Coordinate required inspections, testing, regulatory compliance, and safe work practices.
• Support emergency preparedness and respond to building emergencies when needed.
• Keep management, the Board, onsite staff, and residents appropriately informed about maintenance activities and major projects.
