Facilities Manager

The Salvation Army is a branch of the Christian Church, and the goal of all programs is a spiritual, emotional, and physical regeneration of all people. The Facilities Manager (FM) is responsible for the hands-on, day-to-day operation of all physical assets at the Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Center (RJKCCC). This includes oversight of building systems, utility infrastructure, and direct supervision of Facilities Department staff.

In addition to performing maintenance-related functions, the FM provides leadership in the planning, coordination, and execution of maintenance and repair operations within a large, complex facility. The role encompasses supervisory, engineering, and administrative responsibilities, ensuring that all systems operate efficiently, safely, and in compliance with applicable standards. Due to the nature of the population served, the FM must also implement specialized maintenance practices and adhere to enhanced safety and security procedures.

The FM manages the technical, operational, and engineering aspects of construction, renovation, and facility design projects. The RJKCCC spans more than 200,000 square feet of program space across 15 acres, including parking areas and outdoor fields.

Facilities include a Worship and Performing Arts Center; an Aquatic Center with competition and recreational pools; a Health and Wellness Center; an Athletic Center with gymnasium and multipurpose field; an Early Education Center (preschool); a Community Education and Resource Center; banquet and conference spaces; administrative offices; a dormitory; kitchen facilities; and an off-property residence.

The Facilities Manager's position is physically demanding and requires the ability to perform a broad range of active, hands-on technical duties in support of facility operations. This role involves prolonged periods of standing and walking, as well as frequent climbing of ladders, balancing, stooping, kneeling, bending, stretching, crouching, and crawling to inspect, access, and service building systems and equipment.

The position requires strong manual dexterity and hand–eye coordination to safely operate tools, machinery, testing instruments, and diagnostic equipment. Clear visual acuity, both near and distance, is essential for reading technical diagrams and blueprints, inspecting mechanical and electrical components, and identifying potential safety hazards.

The employee must regularly push, pull, lift, and carry up to 25 - 50 pounds and occasionally lift or move items exceeding 50 pounds in connection with equipment installation, repair, and material handling. All physical tasks must be performed safely and efficiently in a variety of indoor and outdoor environments, which may include exposure to varying temperatures and weather conditions.

The position also requires availability to work all shifts, including evenings, weekends, holidays, and special events, as operational needs dictate.
