Regional Maintenance Manager; West

Description

Envision Cold is a leading provider of cold storage solutions serving temperature-controlled supply chains across North America. We support customers in food, beverage, and other temperature-sensitive industries with end-to-end cold chain capabilities, from initial processing through final-mile delivery. Headquartered in Atlanta, GA, we continue to expand through development, construction, and acquisition of best-in-class cold storage facilities.

We are seeking an experienced, hands-on Regional Maintenance Manager to lead facility maintenance and refrigeration operations across a portfolio of sites in our West region, spanning from California to the Pacific Northwest. This role is anchored at a home facility, where the Regional Maintenance Manager performs day-to-day maintenance leadership duties, and extends outward as the first responder for refrigeration and equipment issues at every site in the region — traveling as needed to stabilize operations, support site teams, and keep facilities safe, compliant, and running.

Refrigeration maintenance stays hands-on and in-house under this role. Every other trade — HVAC, electrical, dock & door, racking, and material handling equipment — is serviced by Envision Cold's single-source facilities vendor, and this role owns that vendor relationship: confirming SLA compliance, reviewing scorecards, and escalating unresolved issues, rather than directly overseeing in-house repair crews for those trades. This role blends working technical leadership with regional oversight: setting standards and coaching site-level Maintenance Supervisors and Leads, owning refrigeration PSM/RMP compliance across the region, managing the facilities vendor relationship, managing regional maintenance budgets and capital projects, and stepping in directly — tools in hand when needed — wherever a site needs support or an emergency requires it.

It's ideal for a proven maintenance leader who is equally comfortable coaching a team, managing a vendor relationship, untangling a complex refrigeration issue, and living out of a suitcase to keep multiple sites running across a wide geography.

• Serve as the primary point of escalation and first responder for refrigeration and equipment issues across all sites in the region, traveling on short notice to support site teams through equipment failures, refrigeration upsets, and other urgent issues.
• Perform hands-on, day-to-day facility maintenance leadership at your assigned home site, including directing refrigeration work, prioritizing repairs, and supporting preventive maintenance execution.
• Set performance expectations and provide coaching, technical guidance, and accountability for Maintenance Supervisors, Leads, and refrigeration technicians at each site in the region.
• Travel to regional sites on a recurring basis to conduct site visits, audits, training, and hands-on support.
• Act as the liaison between regional site teams, operations leadership, and corporate maintenance/PSM leadership, ensuring clear communication and consistent standards across the region.

• Own the day-to-day relationship with Envision Cold's single-source facilities vendor for all non-refrigeration trades (HVAC, electrical, dock & door, racking, and material handling equipment) across the region.
• Monitor vendor performance against SLAs, review scorecards, and hold the vendor accountable for response time, quality, and completion of assigned work.
• Escalate and drive resolution of unresolved or recurring vendor issues, stepping in with direct oversight — and hands-on support in emergencies — when the vendor…
