About the Role:

Join CBRE and support one of our premier clients in the industrial sector. This onsite Facilities Manager position is based in Rancho Cordova, CA, where you will oversee approximately 30,000 square feet of warehouse and office space while also providing remote oversight of smaller warehouse facilities in Fremont and Pleasanton.

As the primary facilities lead, you will be responsible for ensuring safe, efficient, and reliable operations across the portfolio. This role requires a strong mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) background, with the ability to serve as the go-to resource for troubleshooting, maintenance coordination, and facility system performance. In addition to the technical aspects of the role, you will manage budgets, oversee vendor performance, coordinate service providers, and maintain strong partnerships with both the client and CBRE stakeholders.

We're seeking a well-rounded facilities professional who can effectively balance hands-on operational support with administrative and financial responsibilities. The ideal candidate will understand how to navigate third-party service relationships, drive accountability among vendors, and deliver a high level of service while ensuring facilities operate efficiently and cost-effectively.

What You'll Do

• Coordinate and oversee facility maintenance, repairs, and improvement projects performed by vendors, contractors, and service providers to ensure quality, compliance, and timely completion.
• Build and maintain strong client relationships, serving as a key point of contact for facility-related matters and leading discussions to resolve outstanding issues and concerns.
• Plan, execute, and manage capital and operating projects from initiation through completion, ensuring alignment with business objectives, budgets, and timelines.
• Develop, administer, and monitor operating and capital budgets, providing financial oversight and identifying opportunities for cost optimization.
• Conduct routine facility inspections to ensure compliance with local, state, and federal regulations, while identifying opportunities to improve operational efficiency, reliability, and asset performance.
• Oversee environmental health and safety programs and procedures to promote a safe, compliant, and high-performing workplace.
• Manage vendor relationships, contracts, and invoicing processes, including reviewing and approving proposals, quotes, and expenditures for parts, labor, and services.
• Deliver training and guidance on facility operations, maintenance procedures, safety protocols, and best practices to support team effectiveness and compliance.
• Provide leadership and direct supervision to facility staff, including workforce planning, employee development, performance management, coaching, recruiting, and onboarding.
• Lead by example and demonstrate behaviors aligned with CBRE's RISE values, fostering collaboration and influencing stakeholders to achieve shared goals and successful outcomes.
• Leverage expertise in facilities management and cross-functional collaboration to support departmental objectives and drive operational excellence.
• Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve day-to-day and moderately complex operational challenges, implementing effective solutions and continuously improving processes and systems.

What You'll Need:

• Proven experience managing commercial facilities, including day-to-day operations, maintenance programs, regulatory compliance, and vendor performance management.
• Working knowledge of Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems and building infrastructure.
• Demonstrated leadership experience overseeing onsite teams, including setting performance expectations, providing coaching and development, conducting performance evaluations, and fostering a culture of accountability and engagement.
• Bachelor's degree preferred, with 3-5 years of relevant facilities management experience. An equivalent combination of education and experience will be considered. A valid driver's license is required. Facilities Management certification (e.g., FMP, CFM) is preferred.
• Experience developing, managing, and monitoring operating and capital budgets, with a strong understanding of financial controls and cost management practices.
• Excellent interpersonal, relationship-building, and communication skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with clients, vendors, and cross-functional teams.
• Strong problem-solving and decision-making abilities, including the capacity to navigate complex situations, resolve issues, and influence positive outcomes.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, including Excel, Word, Outlook, and related business applications, with strong technical aptitude and the ability to learn new systems quickly.
• Highly organized with strong attention to detail, effective prioritization skills, and a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently while also collaborating effectively within a team environment.
• Strong analytical and mathematical skills, including the ability to interpret data, prepare budgets, calculate percentages and financial metrics, and support business decision-making.
• Must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship requirements.
