Are you highly organized, detail-oriented, and skilled in supporting complex administrative operations? The Town of Brookline's Building Department is seeking a motivated Preventative Maintenance Coordinator to support the Capital and Operations Division. This role plays a central part in coordinating preventative maintenance efforts across town and school facilities while also providing administrative and financial support.

You'll gain valuable experience in building maintenance practices and procedures, working alongside dedicated professionals committed to public service.

  • Scheduling and Dispatch: Coordinate and schedule maintenance staff. Maintain recurring maintenance calendars and ensure timely execution of work across all public facilities.
  • Project and Bid Support: Assist with the preparation, distribution, and tracking of service contracts and bid documents, and maintain records for annual contracts and service agreements.

Assist with the preparation of Building Commission documents such as contracts, change orders, and meeting materials.
  • Financial and Reporting Duties: Prepare and maintain financial documents such as invoices, purchase orders, requisitions, and budget transfers. Assist with data collection, reporting, and tracking expenditures for departmental projects.
  • General Duties: Perform similar or related work as required or assigned to support the efficient functioning of the Building Department.

Qualifications

Education & Experience: High school diploma plus relevant coursework in business, administration, or finance, or an equivalent combination of education and experience; 3–5 years of office experience in a fast-paced environment.

Knowledge & Skills

  • Strong organizational, communication, and customer service skills
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks and work independently with attention to detail
  • Familiarity with office software (word processing, spreadsheets, databases)
  • Experience with facilities/building maintenance practices preferred
  • Ability to maintain confidentiality and exercise sound judgment
