Associate Facilities Manager

Summary

The Associate Project Manager, Facilities supports facility maintenance, repair, equipment replacement, and improvement projects across a portfolio of properties.

• Apply practical knowledge of mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and general building systems when evaluating property conditions and proposed solutions.
• Work closely with property maintenance teams, Facilities, Operations, Asset Management, and Capital Projects to determine appropriate repair, replacement, and improvement strategies.
• Assist in developing project scopes of work based on observed facility conditions and operational needs.
• Coordinate contractors, service providers, consultants, and vendors performing facility repairs, replacements, and improvements.
• Review contractor proposals and help evaluate whether recommended repairs or replacements appropriately address the underlying facility issue.
• Monitor work performed in the field for progress, quality, safety, and alignment with the approved project scope.
• Support project planning, scheduling, budgeting, documentation, and close-out from project initiation through completion.
• Assist with budget tracking, invoice review, change orders, and project documentation.
• Track project milestones, risks, and deliverables and escalate concerns as needed.
• Partner with property and operations teams to schedule work while minimizing disruption to residents and property operations.
• Support project punch lists, completion inspections, and turnover documentation.
• Maintain accurate project records, contracts, reports, and facility documentation.
• Provide additional facilities and project support as assigned.
