Facility Manager

Facility Manager

Coborn's Inc. is looking for a hands-on, proactive Facility Manager who takes that same ownership mindset to heart.

From preventative maintenance and vendor partnerships to facility improvements and seasonal needs, you'll play an important role in protecting our company assets and creating a safe, welcoming, and well-maintained environment for our employees and visitors.

If you enjoy solving problems, working independently, building strong vendor relationships, and seeing the direct results of your work, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact every day.

What You'll Own

Facility Operations

• Oversee preventative maintenance programs for building systems and equipment.
• Monitor contractor work to ensure projects and services meet company expectations.
• Troubleshoot facility issues and coordinate timely, effective solutions.
• Maintain accurate records of repairs, maintenance activities, inspections, and equipment history.

Grounds & Seasonal Maintenance

• Oversee exterior property maintenance, including parking lots, sidewalks, landscaping, and common areas.
• Coordinate snow removal and ice management to maintain safe facility access throughout Minnesota winters.
• Schedule and oversee seasonal services, including landscaping, lawn care, and exterior maintenance.

• Support emergency response planning and facility-related incident resolution.
• Help create an environment where employees and visitors can feel safe and supported.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who brings an owner's mindset to facility management. You notice what needs attention, take initiative, follow through, and understand that maintaining a great facility is about more than fixing things when they break.

Our ideal candidate is:

• Proactive, dependable, and solutions-focused.
• Comfortable managing multiple priorities and responding to unexpected facility needs.
• Skilled at building productive relationships with contractors, vendors, and internal partners.
• Organized and able to maintain facility and maintenance documentation.
