We are seeking an experienced Facilities Maintenance Senior Lead to oversee and lead daily maintenance operations. This is a hands-on leadership position for a strong maintenance professional who can guide a team of technicians while also troubleshooting and repairing complex mechanical and facility systems.

The ideal candidate has strong experience with pumps, motors, hydraulics, and mechanical systems and is comfortable diagnosing difficult equipment issues, coordinating preventive maintenance, and leading technicians. Wastewater experience is highly preferred.

The Senior Lead will work closely with facility management and senior leadership to ensure equipment and building systems remain safe, reliable, compliant, and operational.

As a Facilities Maintenance Senior Lead, your day will combine hands-on maintenance, troubleshooting, team leadership, and planning.

You may start the morning by reviewing maintenance priorities, equipment status, work orders, and any issues from the previous shift. You'll assign work to technicians, provide direction on urgent repairs, and make sure the team is focused on the highest-priority needs.

Throughout the day, you'll be hands-on with troubleshooting and repairs. This may include diagnosing pumps, motors, hydraulic systems, mechanical equipment, HVAC, plumbing, electrical systems, and other facility equipment.

You'll also spend time coaching and mentoring technicians, helping them develop their troubleshooting skills and ensuring work is completed safely and correctly. When a complex problem arises, you'll be the person the team relies on to help identify the root cause and develop a lasting solution.

You'll coordinate preventive maintenance, review work orders, communicate with vendors and facility management, and help keep projects moving according to schedule and budget.

Before the end of the shift, you'll review completed work, document outstanding issues, communicate priorities for the next shift, and make sure the facility is positioned for reliable operation.

This is a leadership role—but it is also a hands-on maintenance role. We are looking for someone who is comfortable leading from the front and getting involved when technical problems require advanced expertise.
