Senior Maintenance Manager

The Senior Maintenance Manager is responsible for the reliability, availability, and performance of all automated material-handling equipment and facility systems at the McDonough Distribution Center. Reporting to the Maintenance Director, North America, this leader directs maintenance supervisors and maintenance team members across a split-shift operation to keep PLC-controlled conveyor, sortation, robotics, and RFID systems — as well as building and facility infrastructure — running at peak uptime.

The role owns the site's preventive, condition-based, and continuous-improvement maintenance programs across both production automation and facilities and is accountable for driving measurable results across core reliability KPIs — MTTR, MTBF, OEE, and breakdown reduction — while managing projects, budgets, vendors, and team development.

• 7+ years of progressive maintenance/reliability experience in a high-throughput distribution, warehouse-automation, or manufacturing environment.
• 3+ years of leadership experience directly managing supervisors and/or maintenance teams.

• Demonstrated experience with preventive and condition-based maintenance programs and a CMMS platform.
• Proven track record improving maintenance KPIs — MTTR, MTBF, OEE, and breakdown reduction.
• Project management experience with the ability to plan, budget, and execute multiple initiatives simultaneously.
