If you love seeing things run smoothly, solving problems before they happen, and leading teams that keep everything together—this role is for you.

Under the guidance of the Corporate Director of Facilities, you’ll take the lead in keeping our campus in top shape. From Maintenance and Carpentry to Painting and beyond, you’ll guide a talented team responsible for maintaining, repairing, and renovating our buildings, grounds, and non-patient equipment.

You’ll partner closely with Facilities leadership to keep operations aligned with TMC’s mission while ensuring everything meets the highest standards—whether that’s CMS, TJC, or other regulatory requirements. Simply put: you help keep the place safe, functional, and running like a well‑oiled machine.

• Lead, coach, and inspire a team of skilled trades professionals
• Keep projects moving—on time, on budget, and done right the first time
• Plan and prioritize maintenance, repairs, and renovation projects across campus
• Build project estimates and turn ideas into actionable plans
• Oversee contractors and make sure work meets quality and safety standards
• Stay ahead of compliance with building codes and regulatory requirements
• Track labor, materials, and progress in TMS (because details matter)
• Collaborate with teams across the organization to support day‑to‑day operations and long‑term improvements

• Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• 5+ years of experience in facilities, engineering, or large‑scale building operations
• Working knowledge of all trades and how they come together
• Strong understanding of building systems, maintenance practices, and codes
• A problem‑solving mindset and the ability to think on your feet
• Excellent communication skills—you know how to get things done through people
• Comfort with systems like TMS, purchasing platforms, and CAD
• Valid driver qualifications if the role requires it

• Experience in a healthcare setting (bonus points if you know the ins and outs)
