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.

Leadership & Team Management

• Lead, coach, and develop maintenance supervisors and maintenance technicians across a split-shift, Monday–Friday operation, ensuring full equipment coverage.
• Set clear priorities, work assignments, and performance expectations; build technical bench strength through structured hiring, training, and skills development.
• Foster a safety-first culture and ensure compliance with all EHS, OSHA, LOTO, and site safety standards.

Equipment Reliability & Technical Ownership

• Own the reliability of PLC-controlled systems (e.g., Allen-Bradley/Rockwell, Siemens), conveyor lines, shipping sorters, Sure Sort sortation machines, robotics, and RFID reader/scan systems.
• Direct troubleshooting and rapid recovery of critical automation assets to minimize downtime and protect daily order-fulfillment throughput.
• Ensure controls, drives, sensors, and material-handling equipment are maintained to manufacturers and site standards.

Facilities Management & Building Systems

• Oversee maintenance and reliability of all facility systems, including HVAC, fire sprinkler systems, water backflow prevention, plumbing, electrical distribution, lighting, and dock equipment.
• Manage building envelopes and infrastructure — roofing, flooring, doors, and general construction/repair — and coordinate minor construction and renovation projects on site.
• Maintain commercial kitchen and break-room equipment, including ovens, coolers, freezers, and refrigeration systems.
• Ensure code compliance and timely completion of regulatory inspections and testing (fire/life-safety, backflow certification, HVAC, elevator/dock, and related building codes).
• Select and manage third-party contractors and service vendors for specialized facility trades, holding them to scope, quality, cost, and schedule.

Preventive, Condition-Based & Continuous Improvement

• Build and sustain CMMS-driven preventive maintenance (PM) schedules with high PM compliance and a strong planned-vs-reactive ratio.
• Deploy condition-based maintenance (CBM) techniques — vibration, thermal, electrical, and oil analysis — to detect failures before they cause downtime.
• Drive continuous improvement (CI) initiatives using root cause analysis (RCA) and equipment work orders (EWO) to permanently eliminate recurring failures.

KPIs & Performance Management

• Track, analyze, and improve all maintenance KPIs, including MTTR, MTBF, OEE, and breakdown frequency.
• Use data and trend analysis to target chronic failures, prioritize resources, and report reliability performance to the Maintenance Director, North America.
