• Obtain quotes, compare options, coordinate approvals, schedule work, and follow up through completion.

• Track open repairs, work orders, quotes, project status, costs, and completion dates.
• Verify completed work and promptly address incomplete or unsatisfactory vendor work.
• Maintain vendor contact information, service records, warranties, contracts, inspection records, and other facility documentation.
• Help identify recurring facility issues and recommend practical solutions or preventive maintenance.
• Escalate significant safety, operational, cost, or business-continuity concerns to the General Manager.

• Track action items and miscellaneous projects and follow up with responsible parties until completed.
• Assist with vendor paperwork, purchase requests, invoices, records, and related documentation.
