JLL is hiring a Regional Maintenance Manager to support state‑of‑the‑art distribution centers across North America. This is not a typical RMM role.

As a Regional Maintenance Manager – Leadership Development & Site Excellence, you will deploy across a dynamic portfolio of sites to build leadership capability, drive operational excellence, and raise the standard of maintenance execution network‑wide. You will work directly alongside Senior Maintenance Managers, Maintenance Managers, Area Maintenance Managers, and site teams – coaching in the field, not from a distance.

This role is purpose‑built for an experienced leader who thrives on developing people, strengthening operations, and leaving sites and teams measurably better than they found them. You will serve as a key resource across the network – deploying where leadership development is needed, accelerating new leaders into their roles, and ensuring program standards are executed with consistency and rigor.

You are part of a National Operations Team delivering services to the client across the United States and Canada.
