    Job Description

    Do you dream in blueprints, live for well-oiled machines, and get excited about making buildings hum with efficiency? We're looking for a **Maintenance Operations Manager** to take the lead in keeping our healthcare campus powered, plumbed, and perfectly maintained. You'll be the go-to expert for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems – from the Energy Center to the smallest pipe fitting. In this role, you’ll collaborate with our Corporate Director of Facilities and a dynamic team to plan, repair, renovate, and innovate across the entire campus.

     

    If you’re someone who thrives on solving problems, loves a good project timeline, and gets genuine joy from a job well done — you’ll fit right in.

    What You'll Be Doing:

    + Leading and supporting the team responsible for maintaining all campus MEP systems.

    + Making sure all preventive maintenance and repairs are done right — by the book and by the building code.

    + Partnering with our Design & Construction team on renovation and upgrade projects — keeping things on track, on budget, and up to code.

    + Managing contract service teams and ensuring their work meets our high standards.

    + Keeping meticulous records using our work order system (TMS), so we know what was done, when, and by whom.

    + Staying in sync with safety, regulatory, and accreditation standards (CMS, TJC, etc.).

    + Using your expertise and leadership to make our facilities safer, smarter, and more efficient every day.

    What You Bring to the Table:

    Must-Haves:

    + A Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Civil Engineering — or equivalent work experience that shows you know your stuff.

    + 5+ years of experience in facilities/engineering management or complex building operations.

    + Solid understanding of MEP systems and building codes.

    + Skilled in managing teams and juggling priorities without breaking a sweat.

    + Great communicator — written, spoken, and with a knack for explaining technical stuff in plain English.

    + Comfortable using maintenance software (like TMS), purchasing systems, and CAD.

    + If driving is part of the job, you’ll need to meet our Fleet Driving Safety requirements.

    Bonus Points For:

    + Experience in a **healthcare or hospital** setting (or the willingness to learn the ropes fast).

    + Familiarity with CMS and TJC accreditation standards.

    Why You'll Love It Here:

    + Your work makes a **real difference** — supporting caregivers and patients by keeping our spaces safe, comfortable, and running smoothly.

    + Join a team that **values innovation, teamwork, and professional growth** .

    + No two days are the same — one day you’re planning a major upgrade, the next you're troubleshooting a mystery leak with your crew.

    + You’ll be part of something bigger — helping fulfill a mission of care, safety, and excellence across our health system.
