  • Serve as a key site contact for public utilities, service providers, contractors, and specialized repair vendors.
  • Drive utility cost reduction and energy efficiency through sound operating practices, consumption trend review, and improvement projects.
  • Ensure facility systems support a safe, compliant, and stable production environment.
Capital Projects, Contractors & Asset Planning
  • Manage capital projects from scope definition through installation, commissioning, and turnover to maintenance.
  • Develop long-term plans for asset replacement, obsolescence risk, and maintenance investment based on business need, reliability risk, and lifecycle condition.
  • Manage contractor and vendor relationships, including janitorial, grounds, construction, specialized maintenance, and repair services.
  • Ensure contractors follow site safety requirements, permitting expectations, insurance requirements, and scope controls.
  • Confirm that physical installations and modifications meet safety, regulatory, and internal standards.
Safety, People Leadership & Continuous Improvement
  • Build and maintain a strong safety culture across facilities, maintenance, and tool room areas.
  • Ensure safe working conditions, strong housekeeping, and compliance with applicable safety procedures, including LOTO, arc flash, and safety planning for non-standard work.
  • Coach, develop, and engage associates to build technical skill, ownership, and accountability.
  • Lead continuous improvement efforts that reduce waste, improve response time, increase equipment availability, and improve shop-floor execution.
  • Promote accurate work order documentation, failure coding, parts usage, and maintenance history to support better decisions.
  • Use available digital tools, data, and emerging technologies where practical to improve training, documentation, troubleshooting, and reliability.
Key Measures of Success
  • Safety performance, hazard reduction, and contractor compliance.
  • Reduction in unplanned downtime and recurring equipment failures.
  • Planned maintenance execution and schedule compliance.
  • CMMS data quality, work order discipline, and maintenance history accuracy.
  • Tool room responsiveness and capability.
  • Utility cost and energy consumption improvement.
  • Capital project delivery against scope, cost, schedule, and performance expectations.
  • Team capability, engagement, and associate development.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree preferred; equivalent technical and leadership experience will be considered.
  • Minimum of 10 years of experience in maintenance, facilities, tool room, engineering, or technical operations.
  • At least 3 years of experience leading a technical support, maintenance, facilities, or tool room team.
  • Experience in a high-volume manufacturing environment strongly preferred.
  • Strong technical troubleshooting capability across mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and automated systems.
  • Ability to read and interpret mechanical and electrical drawings.
  • Working knowledge of PLC-controlled automated equipment.
  • Experience with CMMS or maintenance management systems; SAP experience preferred.
  • Strong project management skills, including contractor coordination, scope development, scheduling, and cost control.
  • Ability to lead skilled trades, technical associates, contractors, and cross-functional partners in a fast-paced production environment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Willingness to adopt practical digital tools, data-driven maintenance practices, and emerging technologies that improve reliability, documentation, training, or team effectiveness.
Preferred Experience
  • Tool room, machining, molding, robotics, or high-volume automated manufacturing experience.
  • Experience developing preventive, predictive, or condition-based maintenance programs.
  • Experience with utility management, energy reduction, or facility infrastructure improvement.
  • Experience using maintenance data, equipment history, or reliability metrics to improve uptime.
  • Experience leading Kaizen, root cause analysis, or other structured continuous improvement efforts.
