Stanford Engineering has been at the forefront of innovation for nearly a century, creating pivotal technologies that have transformed the worlds of information technology, communications, health care, energy, business and beyond. Our faculty and students are creative risk-takers who pursue excellence across a breadth of disciplines. Our alumni include some of the world's most successful leaders in technology and business. Our staff are critical to enabling Stanford Engineering to accomplish its mission: seeking solutions to some of the world's most urgent challenges and educating leaders who will make the world a better place through the power of engineering principles, techniques and systems.

Stanford's Science and Engineering Quad (SEQ) seeks a Building Manager with experience managing a large, interdisciplinary facility with complex instrumentation and labs within the physical and life sciences. The Building Manager provides excellent customer service to building residents and works as part of a collaborative team of SEQ Building Managers.

Although each SEQ Building Manager has a primary facility in which they reside and focus, SEQ Building Managers are responsible for all four buildings, participate in regular cross training, and provide back‑up coverage for each other.

The Building Manager is expected to work independently to ensure that all facilities within the SEQ are appropriately maintained, sustainable, efficient, safe, secure, code‑compliant and accessible. The Building Manager also facilitates moderately complex construction and renovation projects, participates in complex renovation projects, interprets facilities policies and guidelines, and makes enhancements to facilities procedures. The Building Manager reports to the Facilities Services Manager.

The Building Manager will have primary responsibility for the James and Anna Marie Spilker Engineering & Applied Science Building that houses the Edward L. Ginzton independent laboratory as well as the offices of the Department of Applied Physics. The new facilities have been tailored to meet the cutting‑edge requirements of over seventy researchers from all over campus, including leaders in the natural and physical sciences, engineering, and medicine, who are exploring nanoscale properties and devices with potential applications as diverse as water purification, energy conservation, drug delivery, and national security.

As such, the Building Manager will have significant responsibility in developing, streamlining, and improving operations of a modern facility.
