Are you an experienced maintenance leader with expertise across fleet, facilities, refrigeration, and material-handling equipment? This could be an exciting opportunity to lead a complex, high-volume operation with Sysco. We are seeking a Fleet & Facility Maintenance Director to provide strategic and operational leadership across our facility infrastructure, commercial fleet, refrigeration systems, powered industrial equipment, and maintenance operations. This is a highly visible leadership role focused on equipment reliability, preventive maintenance, safety, regulatory compliance, cost management, and operational excellence. What You'll Lead Oversee fleet, facility, refrigeration, and material-handling equipment (MHE) maintenance operations. Lead preventive maintenance programs designed to improve equipment reliability and minimize operational downtime. Provide oversight of ammonia refrigeration systems, HVAC, electrical systems, dock equipment, fire protection, security systems, and building infrastructure. Ensure the safety and operational readiness of the commercial/diesel fleet and powered industrial equipment. Lead and develop maintenance teams while driving accountability, engagement, and performance. Manage third-party contractors and vendor relationships across fleet, facilities, security, janitorial, and other maintenance services. Oversee departmental budgets, expenses, capital requests, assets, and cost-reduction initiatives. Utilize maintenance/CMMS systems to manage preventive maintenance, work orders, and equipment performance. Maintain compliance with applicable OSHA, DOT, food safety, PSM/EPSM, and other regulatory requirements. Partner with Safety on inspections, training, accident investigations, root-cause analysis, and emergency preparedness. Identify opportunities to improve maintenance processes, reduce costs, increase equipment uptime, and support overall operational performance. What We're Looking For 7+ years of maintenance management experience in a complex operational environment. Bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience. Strong experience in fleet and facility maintenance. Knowledge of ammonia/industrial refrigeration systems. Experience with HVAC, electrical systems, preventive maintenance, and powered industrial equipment. Knowledge of OSHA/DOT compliance and PSM/EPSM requirements. Experience managing budgets, capital projects, vendors, and maintenance-related expenses. Proven ability to lead, coach, and develop maintenance teams. Strong problem-solving, operational, and continuous-improvement skills. Why This Opportunity? This is much more than a traditional facility maintenance position. You'll have the opportunity to lead multiple critical functions that directly impact the safety, reliability, productivity, and financial performance of a large-scale food distribution operation. If you are a proven maintenance leader who understands how to balance people, equipment reliability, safety, compliance, and business results, we'd love to hear from you. #J-18808-Ljbffr Sysco
