TEAM CONFIRM

] Full job descriptionAbout the role Storyboard Living is looking for an exceptional Regional Maintenance & Facilities Manager to take ownership of maintenance operations across our apartment portfolio. This isn't a desk-only management position. We're looking for a hands-on maintenance leader who knows how buildings work, knows how to lead people, and gets satisfaction from making an operation better. You'll lead a maintenance team of approximately 12 people supporting 22 communities and approximately 1,000 apartment units throughout the St. Louis region and Metro East. You'll be responsible for the people, systems, standards and execution behind everything from resident work orders and apartment turns to preventative maintenance, property condition, vendors and capital projects. If you're the person other maintenance professionals call when they can't figure something out—and the leader people actually want to work for—we want to talk to you.
