About the role
WE ARE LOOKING FOR AN EXPERIENCED, HANDS-ON MAINTENANCE PROFESSIONAL WHO KNOWS HOW TO GET THINGS DONE.
Grizzly Industrial is seeking an exceptionally capable, dependable, and self-motivated Senior Facilities Maintenance Specialist to maintain, troubleshoot, and repair our Bellingham facilities.
This is not an entry-level position, nor is it a desk job. We need a seasoned professional who has extensive hands-on experience with commercial building systems, possesses outstanding mechanical and troubleshooting abilities, and can confidently handle a wide variety of maintenance and repair challenges.
The successful candidate will report to facility operations management but must be capable of working independently, making sound technical decisions, identifying problems before they become serious, and completing work efficiently and correctly.
We are looking for someone who knows how to diagnose problems, determine the right solution, and get the job done without constant supervision.
REQUIRED TECHNICAL SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
Applicants must have demonstrated hands-on experience and proficiency in the following areas:
- HVAC Systems: Troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, and basic repair of commercial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment.
- Electrical Systems: Practical knowledge of commercial electrical systems, lighting, wiring, troubleshooting, and general electrical maintenance within applicable licensing requirements.
- Plumbing: Ability to diagnose and repair common commercial plumbing problems, including fixtures, piping, drains, and water systems.
- Mechanical Maintenance: Excellent mechanical aptitude and the ability to diagnose equipment failures and perform effective repairs.
- Carpentry and General Construction: Experience with building repairs, doors, hardware, fixtures, and general facility improvements.
- Painting and Finishing: Competence in surface preparation, painting, and maintaining professional-looking facilities.
- Forklift Operation: Experience safely operating forklifts.
- Aerial and Scissor Lifts: Experience safely operating elevated work platforms.
- Computer Skills: Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Outlook, and computerized maintenance tracking.
Candidates must have practical working knowledge of ALL the above areas. We are not looking for someone who requires extensive training in basic maintenance skills.
PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Independently diagnose, troubleshoot, and repair facility equipment and building systems.
- Proactively identify maintenance problems and take appropriate corrective action.
- Perform preventive maintenance to minimize equipment failures, downtime, and costly repairs.
- Maintain HVAC, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, and other facility systems within applicable licensing requirements.
- Perform carpentry, painting, and general building maintenance.
- Maintain building exteriors, grounds, landscaping, and associated facilities.
- Coordinate with outside contractors for specialized work, ensuring quality workmanship and reasonable costs.
- Prioritize and complete assigned maintenance projects efficiently and on schedule.
- Maintain accurate records of maintenance activities, work orders, materials, and expenditures.
- Identify and order necessary parts, tools, and supplies while controlling costs.
- Maintain a safe, clean, organized, and professional work environment.
- Communicate effectively with management regarding maintenance needs, project status, and recommended improvements.
THE PERSON WE WANT
We place a high value on competence, initiative, personal accountability, and results.
The successful candidate must demonstrate:
- Exceptional Troubleshooting Ability: Quickly identify the cause of problems and implement effective, lasting repairs.
- Strong Work Ethic: Take pride in quality workmanship and never cut corners.
- Self-Motivation: Recognize what needs to be done and take action without waiting for detailed instructions.
- Sound Judgment: Know when to make a repair personally and when specialized outside assistance is necessary.
- Organization and Follow-Through: Manage multiple projects, meet deadlines, and finish what you start.
- Dependability: Be someone management can trust to handle responsibilities correctly and independently.
- Communication and Teamwork: Work cooperatively with warehouse operations, management, and outside contractors.
- Attention to Detail: Maintain high standards for safety, workmanship, and facility appearance.
Applicants must have a valid driver's license, a clean driving record, and the physical ability to perform maintenance duties, including lifting, climbing, and working at heights.
A minimum of 5 years of hands-on commercial or industrial facility maintenance experience is preferred.
