What This Job Involves
JLL is hiring a Regional Maintenance Manager to support state-of-the-art industrial distribution centers across North America. This is not a typical RMM role.
As a Regional Maintenance Manager — Leadership Development & Site Excellence, you will deploy across a dynamic portfolio of industrial and manufacturing sites to build leadership capability, drive operational excellence, and raise the standard of maintenance execution network-wide. You will work directly alongside Senior Maintenance Managers, Maintenance Managers, Area Maintenance Managers, and operations teams — coaching in the field, not from a distance.
This role is purpose-built for an experienced leader who thrives on developing people, strengthening industrial operations, and leaving sites and teams measurably better than they found them. You will serve as a key resource across the network — deploying where leadership development is needed, accelerating new leaders into their roles, and ensuring program standards are executed with consistency and rigor.
You are part of a National Operations Team delivering industrial and manufacturing services to the client across the United States and Canada.

Develop and implement reliability plans that support increasing uptime across assigned industrial facilities

Leverage data and operational metrics to identify trends, diagnose root causes, and drive continuous improvement
