This is a hands-on working director position. The Maintenance Director personally performs general maintenance and repair work while directing and working alongside one maintenance helper and coordinating qualified outside contractors when specialized services are required.

The Maintenance Director is responsible for maintaining a safe, functional, clean, and well-maintained physical environment; identifying maintenance and safety concerns before they become significant problems; and assisting leadership in planning for the long-term repair, replacement, and improvement of campus facilities through development and management of a rolling five-year capital expenditure plan.

Essential ResponsibilitiesCampus and Grounds Maintenance

Maintain the approximately 28-acre campus and oversee the ongoing care and appearance of:

• Lawns and landscaped areas;
• Trees, shrubs, plants, and flowers;
• Irrigation and watering systems;
• Walkways, outdoor common areas, fencing, and other exterior campus features;
• Seasonal grounds maintenance and cleanup; and
• General property conditions affecting campus appearance or safety.

Establish and maintain appropriate schedules for mowing, trimming, pruning, planting, irrigation, weed control, seasonal maintenance, and other routine grounds activities.

Responsibilities include routine and preventive maintenance and general repair involving:

• Plumbing;
• Electrical fixtures and minor electrical repairs within appropriate scope;
• Carpentry and drywall;
• Doors, locks, windows, and hardware;
• Painting and surface repair;
• Fixtures and equipment;
• HVAC monitoring and routine maintenance;
• Lighting;
• Furniture and building components; and
• Other general facility repairs.

Determine when repairs can appropriately be completed internally and when licensed or specialized contractors are required.

Coordinate outside vendors and contractors, including obtaining estimates, scheduling work, monitoring completion, and communicating significant issues to management.

Preventive Maintenance

Develop and maintain a comprehensive preventive maintenance program for campus buildings, systems, equipment, and grounds.

Maintain maintenance schedules and records for major equipment and building systems and monitor the condition and anticipated useful life of significant facility assets.

Prioritize maintenance needs based on safety, regulatory requirements, operational impact, asset preservation, and available resources.

Safety and Facility Inspections

Coordinate or support required inspections of facility and life-safety systems and ensure identified maintenance deficiencies are addressed in a timely manner.

Maintain appropriate inspection, maintenance, and repair documentation.

Immediately report significant safety hazards, building-system failures, or conditions that could affect resident, employee, or visitor safety to appropriate leadership.

Five-Year Capital Expenditure Planning

Develop and maintain a rolling five-year capital expenditure and facility improvement plan for the Rimrock campus.

Evaluate buildings, infrastructure, equipment, grounds, and major facility systems to anticipate significant repair and replacement needs.

• Building renovation and repair;
• Flooring and interior improvements;
• Exterior building improvements;
• Grounds and irrigation improvements;

Supervision and Work Coordination

Provide day-to-day supervision and direction to the Maintenance Assistant/Helper.

Assign and prioritize work based upon safety, urgency, preventive maintenance schedules, campus needs, and available resources.

Work alongside maintenance staff in completing repairs, grounds maintenance, inspections, and other projects.

Promote safe work practices and ensure tools, equipment, supplies, and maintenance areas are appropriately maintained and secured.

Purchasing and Inventory

Monitor maintenance supplies, tools, equipment, and replacement parts.

Obtain competitive estimates for significant repairs, services, equipment, and projects when appropriate.

Protect and account for company-owned tools and maintenance equipment.

Emergency and Operational Support
