  • Oversee building management systems including HVAC, fire alarm, security, surveillance, and access control
  • Manage vendor relationships, service contracts, and purchasing of maintenance and janitorial inventory
  • Keep classrooms and shared spaces clean and ready for daily use
  • Coordinate setup and breakdown for in-house events, including chairs, tables, A/V, and equipment
  • Track project progress, support budget planning, and maintain facilities records such as warranties, manuals, permits, and certificates
  • Serve as the on-site point of contact for city agencies and inspections, and ensure compliance with applicable codes and regulations
  • Respond to facility emergencies, which can occasionally require after-hours or weekend attention

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of facilities management experience, including direct supervision of a team
  • Proven ability to manage complex staff scheduling and coverage
  • Strong supervisory and people-management skills
  • Working knowledge of building systems such as HVAC, electrical, and plumbing
  • Experience managing vendors, contracts, and budgets
  • Ability to work independently, solve problems quickly, and exercise sound judgment
  • Comfort with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience
  • Experience in a school, church, or similar institutional setting is a plus
  • Bilingual English/Spanish a plus
