Job Description

Balfour Beatty Communities is a leading property management company dedicated to developing and maintaining exceptional residential communities that residents are proud to call home. As part of Balfour Beatty Investments and Balfour Beatty, plc, an international infrastructure group, the company combines global expertise with a strong commitment to community, quality, and service. Their mission centers on delivering quality living experiences by caring deeply about residents, partners, and communities, fostering a culture of empathy, creativity, and integrity. This culture drives every aspect of their business and ensures meaningful connections and exceptional service delivery across all properties.

The Maintenance Manager role at Balfour Beatty Communities is a critical leadership position responsible for managing the maintenance operations of an assigned residential community. This role involves directing and overseeing a team of maintenance technicians, roads and grounds personnel, and other work order staff to ensure all maintenance services meet the company’s high standards for quality, workmanship, and customer service. The Maintenance Manager coordinates the execution of change-of-occupancy maintenance, resident service requests, and routine property work orders while ensuring compliance with Fair Housing regulations.

In addition to standard maintenance oversight, the Maintenance Manager plays a pivotal role in managing emergency and urgent work orders, collaborating closely with environmental and safety teams to guarantee timely and compliant responses. This includes thorough documentation and use of Yardi property management software to maintain accurate records. A key focus of the role is managing preventive maintenance programs for HVAC systems, pools, water parks, playgrounds, and other building infrastructure, ensuring safety, optimal performance, and regulatory compliance.

The role requires strong leadership capabilities, including training, coaching, and supervising maintenance staff on safety protocols such as OSHA regulations and lockout/tagout procedures. The Maintenance Manager also handles procurement and inventory control of maintenance supplies, maintaining up-to-date safety data sheets and OSHA logs. Safety is emphasized through adherence to the company’s ZERO Harm Journey Plan, cultivating a culture of accountability and care throughout maintenance operations.

This position demands physical stamina and the ability to perform hands-on tasks, including lifting and manipulating equipment and supplies, standing for extended periods, climbing, balancing, and performing clerical work. The Maintenance Manager often interacts directly with staff, vendors, residents, and DoD partners within the residential property, ensuring high-quality service and responsiveness.

Balfour Beatty Communities offers a comprehensive benefits package including discretionary bonuses, medical and dental insurance effective the first of the month following employment, health and flexible spending accounts, company-paid life insurance, a 401K plan with employer matching, generous paid time off including sick, vacation, personal, and floating holidays, volunteer days, parental leave, and disability plans. This role typically requires a minimum of three years in property management or maintenance operations, with at least one year in a supervisory capacity, relevant trade certifications, and a commitment to safety and compliance standards.

This is an excellent opportunity for a maintenance professional seeking to lead a dedicated team in a dynamic community-focused environment, where their expertise can directly contribute to exceptional living experiences and property excellence.
