facilities manager
Property operations supervisor
A facilities manager oversees the physical infrastructure of buildings and workplaces—maintenance, safety systems, utilities, cleaning, and space planning.
The role ensures that everything runs smoothly so occupants can work without thinking about the building itself: The facilities manager arranged for HVAC repairs over the weekend.
Large organizations may have facilities management departments; smaller ones might contract the work out.
