•Identify opportunities for operational improvements, repairs, and upgrades, and implement solutions that enhance efficiency and performance.

•Develop and enforce environmental health and safety procedures tailored to each facility's needs.

•Build and maintain vendor relationships, oversee invoicing processes, and review and approve purchase orders for parts, services, and labor.

•Apply broad business and technical knowledge to align facilities operations with departmental goals and cross-functional initiatives.

•Provide formal supervision to staff, including performance evaluations, coaching, training, and development planning.

•Manage daily team operations by setting work schedules, assigning tasks, cross-training staff, and tracking departmental deadlines.

•Serve as a mentor and role model, promoting CBRE's RISE values and influencing others through leadership and collaboration.

•Solve complex technical and operational challenges with a strategic and solutions-oriented mindset.

•Recognize and address the broader impact of decisions across the department, driving continuous improvement in methods, processes, and standards.

What You'll Need:

•Bachelor's degree preferred with 5-8 years of relevant experience; a combination of education and experience will be considered in lieu of a degree.

•E2 or E1 Connecticut Electrical License required. Working knowledge of Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems

•Facility Management certification (e.g., IFMA, BOMA) is preferred.

•Proven experience in budget management, including accruals, deferrals, and variance reporting.
