YOUR ROLE AND IMPACT

 As a Regional Engineer Manager, your role is a constant blend of:

• Building Operations – You are an expert in all physical operations of mid-rise, high-rise and retail properties.  You know just what it takes for your properties to be successful!  You will recommend, review and continuing providing a quality business environment for tenants and a productive working relationship with property staff and outsourced engineering team, making every detail (and dollar) count.

Their success is your success, and your passion for coaching and communication will help your teams thrive. You’ll be supervising a team both internally and outsourced across multiple properties.  You understand the big picture of operations and will help provide the structure and workflow for the team while mentoring them toward their career goals.
• Review and coordination of construction process. You will review construction plans and ensure specifications are upheld to the highest possible standards for quality by ensuring construction documents are of complete detail and scope to address critical issues such as code compliance, constructability, noise transmission, waterproofing, etc. with a focus on not only preventing future costs or delays during construction but also considering future needs and maintenance costs.  You will help monitor the project schedule throughout the pre-construction and construction periods by assisting the third-party General Contractor and coordinating project interactions and schedules with both internal departments and external consultants.
• Industry Expertise – You have the in-depth and up-to-date knowledge on all commercial property-specific needs or problems to make sure they are dealt with up to legal and environmental standards. You’ll regularly review and schedule contractors, prepare all work scopes and contracts related to capital projects and have a sound knowledge for fair marker pricing (as well as a knack to negotiate when needed).  Working with your stakeholders, you’ll analyze data, make suggestions and oversee the implementation of operations that makes our commercial tenants feel like they are at HOME! 

Sure, there is a lot on your plate, but you are the type of person who is looking for a job that will challenge you in new ways and provide you with the opportunity to grow.
