You take pride in keeping facilities looking professional and functioning properly, understanding that a well-maintained workspace helps everyone do their best work. You're organized and systematic, tracking work orders efficiently, following up to ensure completion, and maintaining clear documentation. You can juggle multiple requests across different locations, prioritizing urgent needs while keeping routine maintenance on track. You're comfortable working independently, spending significant time traveling between locations without daily direct supervision. You're self-motivated and take initiative - when you notice something that needs attention, you take care of it rather than waiting to be asked. You're adaptable and responsive, understanding that urgent maintenance issues can disrupt your planned schedule. You remain calm when emergencies arise, whether it's a plumbing issue, HVAC failure, or equipment malfunction requiring immediate attention. You communicate well with diverse stakeholders - employees reporting issues, contractors performing repairs, and leadership requesting facility improvements. You're professional, courteous, and focused on creating positive experiences even when addressing problems. ### Why Join Us? This role offers variety and independence - you'll work across multiple locations rather than being confined to one office, and you'll have the autonomy to manage your schedule and priorities. You'll see the direct results of your work in well-maintained facilities that support our healthcare mission. We provide training on our specific facilities and systems, opportunities to develop your maintenance and coordination skills, and a supportive environment where your contributions keep operations running smoothly. **Professional Growth:** - Exposure to facilities management across multiple healthcare office locations - Development of vendor management and coordination skills - Training on healthcare facility compliance and safety standards - Opportunities to lead facility improvement projects - Potential for expanded responsibilities as organization grows ### Work Environment and Schedule This position requires moderate to high travel between company office locations on a regular basis. You'll spend your time traveling to various sites, conducting maintenance work, coordinating repairs, and responding to urgent facility needs. The role has a high degree of schedule disruption - routine is frequently interrupted by urgent maintenance issues, equipment failures, or unexpected facility problems requiring immediate attention. Flexibility and the ability to pivot quickly are essential to success in this role. Physical demands include standing, walking, bending, lifting (up to 50 lbs), using tools and equipment, and working in varied conditions including potentially uncomfortable temperatures when HVAC systems need repair. ### Ready to Keep Our Facilities Running Smoothly?
