Location & Travel

Based in Wichita, Kansas
Regular travel between Wichita and Hutchinson properties
Typical Hutchinson presence of 1–2 days per week

Role Overview

• This is not a traditional facilities management role.
• Capital III is seeking an experienced Property & Facilities leader to establish and lead a newly created Property & Facilities function responsible for a multi-site portfolio and long-term stewardship strategy.
• This role carries full accountability for the operational performance, capital planning influence, vendor ecosystem, and facilities strategy across Capital III’s portfolio, including a 28-acre headquarters campus in Wichita and three additional facilities in Hutchinson, Kansas.
• This leader will not inherit a fully defined system—they will build it.
• Reporting directly to the Chief Integrator, this role will define the operating model, establish standards, build the preventive maintenance strategy, lead vendor governance, oversee capital planning in partnership with Finance, and recruit and develop the initial Facilities Technician team that will support the function moving forward.
• This is a rare opportunity for a facilities leader who wants to build, shape, and lead a function—not simply manage existing operations.

Why This Opportunity?

Build Something That Lasts

• You won’t inherit a mature facilities department. You will help design and implement the operating model, preventive maintenance program, vendor governance framework, and operational standards that will support the organization for years to come.
• You will also have direct influence over how capital is prioritized and deployed across a multi-site portfolio, working closely with Finance and executive leadership to ensure long-term asset performance and lifecycle planning.

Have a Seat at the Leadership Table

• Reporting directly to the Chief Integrator and partnering with executive leadership, you will help shape decisions involving facilities strategy, capital investments, asset lifecycle planning, and operational priorities.

Lead People, Not Just Properties

• You will directly lead a facilities team while developing bench strength, cross-training capabilities, and a culture of accountability and stewardship.

Manage a Diverse Portfolio

• You will oversee a growing portfolio that includes The Trailhead in Wichita and properties in Hutchinson, ensuring consistency, quality, and operational excellence across all locations.

Work for a Values-Driven Organization

• At Capital III, we believe strong organizations create Economic, Social, and Spiritual Capital. We seek leaders who value stewardship, integrity, service, and long-term thinking.

Why This Role Exists

• Capital III is entering a phase of continued growth and operational maturity across its Wichita headquarters campus and Hutchinson facilities.
• As the organization expands its physical footprint and long-term investment in its properties, there is a need for a dedicated leader to formalize the Property & Facilities function, establish consistent operating standards, and ensure the portfolio is managed with a long-term stewardship mindset.
• This role is being created to bring structure, discipline, and leadership to a function that is critical to how Capital III operates and grows.

What You'll Own

Portfolio Stewardship

• Steward Capital III’s 28-acre headquarters campus in Wichita, including buildings, grounds, equipment, fleet assets, and supporting infrastructure.
• Oversee operational performance across three Hutchinson facilities.
• Ensure all sites are safe, reliable, attractive, and ready to support employees, tenants, guests, and community stakeholders.
• Lead the portfolio as one integrated operation rather than a collection of independent locations.
• This includes full responsibility for grounds, exterior environments, building systems, equipment, fleet assets, and site presentation across all locations.

Facilities & Property Leadership

• Lead an integrated property and facilities operation across multiple sites.
• Establish and maintain standards for safety, reliability, presentation, and tenant readiness.
• Develop systems and processes that create consistency across the portfolio.
• Serve as the primary operational leader for facilities and property management decisions.

Team Leadership

• Lead, recruit, hire, onboard, and develop the initial Facilities & Maintenance Technicians who will form the foundation of the Property & Facilities function.
• Establish team structure, operating rhythms, safety standards, and performance expectations.
• Create cross-training and coverage models across Wichita and Hutchinson to ensure operational continuity and resilience.
• Develop a culture of accountability, responsiveness, and stewardship that scales with the growth of the portfolio.
• This function is being built—not inherited—creating a rare opportunity to shape both the team and the operating model from the ground up.

Vendor & Contractor Management

• Manage relationships with HVAC, electrical, plumbing, landscaping, janitorial, and specialty service providers.
• Lead RFP processes, contract negotiations, and vendor selection decisions.
• Establish vendor scorecards and performance reviews.
• Drive cost savings through disciplined vendor management and strategic sourcing, including long-term contract structuring and lifecycle cost optimization across building systems and portfolio assets.

Preventive Maintenance & Operations

• Build and oversee a comprehensive preventive maintenance program.
• Manage building systems, life-safety systems, grounds, fleet, and equipment.
• Conduct routine site inspections and proactively identify risks.
• Lead emergency response planning and facility incident management.

Capital Planning & Budget Ownership

• Co-develop and manage operating and capital budgets.
• Lead capital improvement projects from scope development through completion.
• Partner with Finance on asset planning, replacement strategies, and lifecycle decisions.
• Track operational efficiencies and cost-saving initiatives.

Stakeholder Partnership

• Collaborate with executive leaders, tenants, vendors, and community stakeholders.
• Support tenant experience initiatives and facility readiness.
• Serve as a trusted operational partner across the organization.

Why This Role Is Different

Many facilities leadership opportunities focus on maintaining established operations.

This opportunity is different.

You will have the opportunity to:

• Build a Property & Facilities function from the ground up
• Establish operating standards across a multi-site portfolio
• Hire and develop the initial Facilities Technician team
• Influence capital planning and asset lifecycle decisions
• Develop the vendor ecosystem and service delivery model
• Partner directly with executive leadership on long-term portfolio strategy

For the right leader, this is an opportunity to create a function that will influence the organization for years to come.
