  • Conduct regular building inspections and proactively identify maintenance needs.

  • Maintain accurate maintenance records, inspections, and documentation.
  • Read inspection reports, complete corrective actions, and upload required documentation into our computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
  • Manage work orders and ensure timely completion.
  • Maintain inventory of maintenance supplies and equipment.
  • Support state surveys, inspections, and regulatory visits.

We're Looking For Someone Who Is

  • A hands-on leader who leads by example.
  • Highly organized and able to prioritize multiple tasks.
  • Calm, focused, and solutions-oriented during emergencies or high-pressure situations.
  • An excellent communicator with staff, vendors, and management.
  • Tech-savvy and comfortable using computers, tablets, and maintenance software.
  • Detail-oriented with strong documentation skills.
  • Self-motivated with a strong work ethic and sense of ownership.
  • Reliable, accountable, and committed to following through on responsibilities.
  • Able to identify problems before they become major issues.

Qualifications

  • Previous experience as a Directors position.
  • Knowledge of HVAC, plumbing, electrical, mechanical systems, carpentry, and general building maintenance.
  • Experience with life safety systems, fire protection systems, generators, and regulatory compliance preferred.
  • Comfortable using Microsoft Office, email, tablets, and CMMS/work order software.
  • Valid driver's license preferred.

Our Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone who takes ownership of the facility as if it were their own. Someone who doesn't wait to be told what needs attention, communicates proactively, keeps projects moving, follows through on commitments, and inspires their team through hard work and professionalism. If you're dependable, motivated, and enjoy solving problems in a fast-paced healthcare environment, we'd love to hear from you.
