Facilities Manager

Location : Dallas-Fort Worth, TX (On site) | Type : Full Time | Schedule : Monday-Friday

Norm Reeves Dealerships is hiring a Facilities Manager to lead day-to-day facilities operations across assigned automotive dealership locations in Dallas-Fort Worth. You'll coordinate preventive and corrective maintenance, manage vendor and contractor performance, inspect sites, and keep work orders moving from request to verified completion. Dealership buildings include showrooms, service drives, service shops, parts areas, offices, and parking lots, all of which need to stay safe, functional, and presentable for customers and employees. You'll also track operating expenses, review invoices, and support capital improvement planning so leadership can make informed decisions about repairs and investments.

This role fits an organized, dependable facilities professional who likes being on site, holding vendors to their commitments, and closing issues out completely. You'll work with dealership managers, service providers, contractors, and internal accounting teams. Automotive dealership experience is helpful but not required. We welcome candidates from commercial property management, retail, hospitality, multi-site operations, and facilities services. This is an on-site role with regular local travel between dealership locations throughout DFW.
What You'll Do

• Manage facilities operations across assigned DFW dealership locations, prioritizing service requests by safety, operational impact, and customer visibility.
• Oversee the work order process in the work order system or CMMS, from intake and assignment through scheduling, completion, and closeout.
• Plan and track preventive maintenance schedules for building systems and equipment, and follow up on overdue items.
• Coordinate HVAC, plumbing, electrical, lighting, roofing, overhead doors, landscaping, janitorial, paving, and other building services through qualified vendors.
• Conduct recurring site inspections to identify repair needs, safety concerns, deferred maintenance, and appearance issues.
• Obtain and compare vendor proposals, noting scope differences, exclusions, pricing, and schedule impacts, then recommend a course of action.
• Prepare, route, and track service agreements, purchase orders, and contracts, and monitor renewal and expiration dates.
• Review vendor invoices for accuracy, correct location coding, supporting documentation, and alignment with approved proposals, purchase orders, and service agreements.
• Confirm work is complete and meets the agreed scope through site visits, dated photos, and vendor documentation before recommending invoices for approval.
• Resolve invoice discrepancies, missing documentation, credits, and payment inquiries with vendors and accounts payable.
• Maintain operating budget trackers showing approved budgets, commitments, actual expenses, pending invoices, and forecasted costs.
• Prepare repair-versus-replacement recommendations using equipment age, service history, cost, and operational impact.
• Support capital improvement planning by documenting conditions, gathering pricing, and identifying upcoming needs.
• Obtain and track certificates of insurance (COIs) and expiration dates, escalating deficiencies to the appropriate internal reviewer.
• Maintain equipment records, warranties, service histories, and vendor files, organized by location and vendor.
• Coordinate small facility projects, including scheduling, contractor access, progress checks, and closeout documentation.
• Schedule work to minimize disruption to dealership operations, customer access, and employee activities.
• Conduct periodic vendor performance reviews covering responsiveness, quality, pricing, and documentation.
• Provide concise updates to leadership on open issues, budget concerns, safety items, and decisions needed.
• Escalate incomplete work, quality problems, scope changes, and potential cost overruns promptly.
