• Operate and maintain the Energy Management System (EMS), building automation systems, and Life Safety/Fire Alarm Systems (training provided).
• Assist in preparing and managing the annual operating and capital budgets, including tracking capital project timelines and costs.
• Manage contractor and vendor relationships, including bids, scheduling, and invoice accuracy.
• Lead emergency response and after‑hours incident management as the primary point of contact for urgent property issues.
• Manage project and maintenance schedules across the department, prioritizing work to meet property needs and deadlines.
• Ensure work order quality assurance, including accurate documentation and billing accuracy for materials and labor.
• Oversee maintenance operations at the Golden Peak building across the street, including its condominium units, restaurant spaces, and common room with restroom facilities.
• Maintain compliance with OSHA, Colorado labor law, ADA, and applicable local building and fire codes.

What You Bring

• Ability to read and interpret HVAC, electrical, mechanical, and plumbing blueprints and schematics.
• Comfort working at heights and in all‑season mountain conditions, including snow and ice.
• Availability for a varying schedule, including evenings, weekends, holidays, and after‑hours emergency response.
