Facilities Manager

$75k - $90k

International School of Brooklyn

International School of Brooklyn (ISB) is an independent, non-profit school known for its innovative and robust Pre-K 3 to 8th Grade French and Spanish language immersion programs and International Baccalaureate curriculum. The ISB experience is driven by six core values: inquiry-based learning, diversity, global curriculum, language immersion, community, and international mindedness. Dedication to these values enables ISB to develop each student's creativity, critical thinking, global citizenship, and intercultural understanding. International School of Brooklyn is dedicated to ensuring that our commitment to an inclusive and just world is reflected in all aspects of our school: in our classrooms, culture, policies, and practices. ISB's comprehensive commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion requires all staff and faculty members to engage in work, training, and reflection actively and thoughtfully around identity, anti-racism, and anti-bias and are expected to promote an inclusive and equitable school community.

Successful candidates will demonstrate a commitment to anti-bias and anti-racism work and be open to learning about how implicit biases in race, ethnicity, gender identity, and socioeconomic class can shape curricula and pedagogy. Preferred candidates will have experience implementing anti-racist and equitable practices in their teaching and work.

Position Summary

The Facilities Manager is a hands-on working supervisor responsible for the daily operations, maintenance, safety, and security of International School of Brooklyn's buildings. This role keeps our facilities safe, clean, and fully operational for students, staff, families, and weekend community users, and does so as a welcoming, caring, and recognizable person in our school community.

The Facilities Manager interacts daily with faculty, vendors, contractors, security guards, inspectors, rental partners, and community groups. The ideal candidate is a social, community- minded professional who is energized by daily interaction with children, families, staff, and outside partners and vendors. They are hands-on dependable, willing to roll up their sleeves and address challenges directly rather than simply delegate tasks. They remain calm and steady under pressure, able to prioritize and respond thoughtfully when unexpected situations arise, whether it's a maintenance issue, an operational challenge, or a community concern. With strong customer service instincts and genuine warmth, they take pride in creating a safe, welcoming, and well-functioning environment for the entire school community. They are organized, reliable, and committed to following through-ensuring that questions are answered, details are managed, and tasks are brought to completion.
