Are you an experienced manager ready to make a meaningful impact?

• Divisional Supervision & Team Coordination: Directly supervise and mentor personnel within Administrative Services, Operational Administration, Procurement, and Construction and Project Management, ensuring day-to-day productivity and professional development.
• Performance Monitoring & Reporting: Track, analyze, and report on key operational performance measures—including procurement cycle times, fleet utilization and maintenance costs, mail processing volumes, postage expenditures, contract compliance, and facility maintenance metrics to implement data-backed improvements.
• Facilities Maintenance & Project Coordination: Coordinate routine facility maintenance, capital repair projects, and renovations across properties in conjunction with the Department of Administration. Oversee immediate corrective action plans for common maintenance problems and track long-term deferred maintenance tasks.
• Emergency Readiness & Compliance: Ensure all physical assets, vehicle fleets, warehouse spaces, mail facilities, and procurement workflows strictly adhere to safety, security, DOT guidelines, risk management, and ADA regulations. Implement agency disaster preparedness, business continuity, and Continuity of Operations Plans (COOP) to maintain logistical and communication resilience during disruptions.
