As a Mobile Building Engineer at CBRE Global Workplace Solutions, you will play a crucial role in maintaining the operational efficiency of The Home Depot (THD) retail stores within your assigned geographic region. This position requires a proactive and customer-focused approach, as you will be part of a regional team consisting of eight to thirteen technicians, a Facilities Coordinator, a Lead, and an Operations Supervisor. Your primary responsibility will be to ensure that up to seven stores are well-maintained and that any issues are addressed promptly and effectively. The Mobile Building Engineer will be expected to build strong relationships with store managers and staff, actively seeking out and documenting work orders for any problems encountered in the stores, whether they fall within the scope of your responsibilities or not. A willingness to learn and adapt is essential, as the role encompasses a variety of trades, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical work, and more. You will be tasked with conducting minor repairs across these trades, demonstrating a sense of urgency in addressing repairs, and identifying inefficiencies to recommend improvements. In addition to technical skills, effective communication is vital. You will need to keep your Supervisor and Facility Coordinator informed about work priorities and schedules, as well as provide updates on repair statuses and parts orders. The role also involves using a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to manage work orders and submitting accurate expense reports and timesheets. You will be required to participate in an on-call rotation every four weeks, which may involve travel up to 20% for disaster recovery or complex repairs. This position is ideal for self-motivated individuals who can work independently and are willing to flex their schedules to accommodate after-hours repairs.
