- Support facility incidents and emergencies involving HVAC, power, water, life-safety systems, or other building infrastructure; coordinate response, escalation, communication, documentation, and follow-up through resolution.
- Coordinate small facility repairs, moves, and improvement projects, including contractor walkthroughs, scope development, pricing, scheduling, execution, punch-list activities, and closeout; escalate complex or multi-trade work to the appropriate project-management resource.
- Assist with purchase orders, vendor proposals, invoices, operating budgets, forecasting, variance reporting, and cost-control activities as required.
- Maintain accurate site documentation, vendor and emergency contacts, service information, inspection records, escalation procedures, and other information needed for operational continuity.
- Comply with all Newmark and GDIT safety, security, badging, access-control, confidentiality, and applicable regulatory requirements.
- May require additional work outside normal business hours, including overtime and/or on-call response based on operational needs. Perform other duties as assigned.
