Head of Maintenance and Facility Management (m/w/d)

Lion Real Estate Group, LLC · Texas, TX, United States

FULL TIME

Job Description

Protect asset value and deliver reliable resident service across Lion's communities by building the systems, standards, people and vendor partnerships that help service teams succeed.

The Director of Facilities is responsible for maintenance performance across the portfolio. This role sets the standards, programs and controls that onsite service teams work within, rather than running day-to-day service. It covers preventive maintenance, risk management, maintenance budgets, vendor performance, and service team development.

The Director partners closely with the CapEx Director, Procurement, Talent Acquisition and regional leaders to keep communities safe, well maintained and cost-efficient.

The Director of Facilities supports Service Managers rather than supervising daily operations, and partners with the CapEx Director rather than managing capital projects.

Preventive maintenance: Own the portfolio preventive maintenance program, including schedules, standards and completion tracking.

Lead preventive maintenance and risk walks. Risk management: Identify and reduce physical, life-safety and liability risks. Keep inspections, certifications and permits current, including fire, elevator and pool.

Budget management: Build and manage maintenance-related budget line items. Vendor management: Select, contract and manage maintenance vendors. Hold them to service levels, pricing and insurance requirements.

Procurement partnership: Partner with Procurement on national agreements, standard parts and supplies, and pricing that lower cost without lowering quality.

CapEx partnership: Share asset condition data and end-of-life forecasts with the CapEx Director to inform capital plans. Make sure completed projects are handed off to service teams with warranties and maintenance plans.

Training and development: Support training for Service Managers and service teams. Hiring partnership: Partner with Talent Acquisition and regional leaders to hire service and maintenance team members.

Set and maintain service standards, policies and tools that make onsite work easier and more consistent.

Like every Lion leader, this role is responsible for three outcomes: business results, resident experience and team member experience. Strong cost numbers alone won't earn a top rating if they come at the expense of safety, residents or the service team. Follows through on commitments to service teams and shares findings openly
