Team and In-House Operations

• Lead, coach, and develop janitorial managers and supervisors.

• Establish staffing models, schedules, training expectations, work procedures, and supply standards for in-house operations.

• Build a culture of safety, accountability, service, and respect for frontline employees.

• Provide clear performance expectations and support consistent execution across geographically distributed teams.

• Support business continuity needs, site events, and specialized cleaning requirements.

Safety, Compliance, and Sustainability

• Partner with Global EH&S to integrate hazard communication, chemical management, PPE, ergonomics, and applicable biosafety or laboratory cleaning protocols.

• Ensure compliance with applicable local, national, and international regulations and IDEXX policies.

• Promote environmentally responsible cleaning products, equipment, and practices.

• Advance green-cleaning, waste-reduction, and responsible product-selection initiatives in support of sustainability goals.

• Ensure incidents, hazards, and nonconformances are reported, investigated, and addressed appropriately.

Financial and Performance Management

• Own the global janitorial operating budget, including planning, forecasting, tracking, and reporting.

• Identify savings and efficiency opportunities through sourcing, process improvement, technology, equipment, and service-model changes.

• Develop and report service-quality, cost, safety, productivity, and customer-experience metrics.

• Use audits, work-order data, supplier reporting, and stakeholder feedback to drive continuous improvement.

• Provide clear performance updates and recommendations to Facilities leadership.

Stakeholder Partnership and Customer Experience

• Build productive relationships with site leaders, business partners, Regional Facilities Managers, EH&S, Procurement, and service providers.

• Establish practical feedback and escalation mechanisms for service issues and customer concerns.

• Communicate program standards, changes, performance trends, and priorities clearly across regions and levels of the organization.

• Benchmark the program against relevant industry practices and emerging cleaning technologies.
