A Week in the Life
Your week often starts with a walk through the building, checking that everything is in order after the weekend and reviewing your facility log for anything still open with vendors or contractors. Any early morning issues, a heating concern, a heavy delivery, or a maintenance flag from a tenant, get logged and prioritized before anything else happens.
From there, mail takes over part of your morning: sorting incoming mail and packages, preparing outgoing mail, and making sure deliveries reach the right people. Mixed in with mail processing, you are on the phone or on email with vendors, contractors, and service providers, confirming schedules, following up on quotes, and reviewing invoices.
As the week continues, you check in with building tenants about maintenance requests, upcoming scheduled work, and any disruptions they should expect. You document each concern, follow up until it is resolved, and keep the communication clear and professional so tenants know what to expect and when.
You also spend time on the day-to-day rhythms of the office: checking supply levels and placing orders, confirming meeting rooms are ready before staff arrive and routing member inquiries that came in through the mail or general channels to the right person.
Somewhere in the mix, you review building safety and compliance items: confirming an inspection is scheduled, updating emergency procedure documentation, or coordinating building access with a security vendor. If a small facility project or improvement is underway, you check in with the contractor on timeline and cost and make sure the paperwork stays organized.
By the time the week winds down, you are reviewing wins and open threads: a vendor visit that went smoothly, a maintenance issue still waiting on a part, a tenant conversation that needs a follow-up email. You flag anything urgent for the Chief Executive Officer, tidy up your facility log, and set your priorities for the week ahead.

- You communicate confidently and professionally with staff, tenants, contractors, and service providers.
- You take a proactive approach to facility management, identifying issues early and following through until they are resolved.

- You are comfortable with hands on logistics, including mail processing, supply ordering, and basic member inquiry routing, and you are proficient with Microsoft Office applications.
- You bring a service-oriented mindset and reliable onsite presence, ideally with experience in a nonprofit or association environment or supporting building operations and tenant communication.
