This role drives portfolio optimization, new location development, facility and equipment reliability, and vendor value delivery. Accountable for capital and operating budgets for buildings and equipment, as well as the company’s facilities-related procurement strategy, this position ensures uptime, compliance, and cost efficiency through disciplined planning, structured vendor management, and cross-functional execution.**What You’ll Do:*** 45% – Portfolio Strategy, Growth, and New Development: Lead the CTSC expansion roadmap and portfolio optimization aligned with organizational strategy: market prioritization, location format decisions (e.g., Center, Hybrid), site diligence, business-case development, and project plans. Partner with the real estate vendor partner on leases, ensuring financial, operational, and timeline targets align with annual operating plan (AOP).

Ensure regulatory and safety compliance for building systems (fire/life safety, security, environmental/waste handling) in partnership with Global Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS), when appropriate, coordinate inspections and corrective actions.* 20% – Procurement and Vendor Management (National and Local): Own facilities-related categories (building maintenance, capital repairs, electrical, plumbing, equipment/tools, parts/services). Build and manage the vendor ecosystem: national programs where scale benefits apply; vetted local partners where responsiveness or specialization is needed. Lead sourcing events, contract negotiations, and consolidate suppliers where appropriate to reduce cost and complexity. Ensure adherence to corporate purchasing policies; serve as CTSC subject matter expert for procurement processes, approvals, and compliance. Track total cost of ownership, realize savings, and measure vendor performance (response time, first-time fix, quality, uptime impact).* 10% – Real Estate Portfolio Administration: Oversee day-to-day lease administration in partnership with Real Estate and third-party transaction providers (renewals, options, amendments). Monitor rent schedules, common area maintenance reconciliations, and landlord obligations; escalate and resolve issues that impact cost or operations.
