Full job description

POSITION SCOPE:

At The Meadows, our building is more than walls and systems — it is home to 105 residents, and someone has to be the person who keeps that home safe, warm, clean and running every hour of every day. That person is our Director of Maintenance & Environmental Services. Reporting to the Community Lead (CEO) you will lead our Maintenance, Environmental Services and Laundry teams in a “working director/manager/supervisor” role: you’re close to the work, not buried under layers of management. One hour you may be negotiating a vendor contract or planning a capital project; the next you are troubleshooting a boiler with your team, answering an after-hours call from a nurse, or walking a neighbourhood to see that everything is as it should be.

The role reaches right across the physical life of the home — building systems and equipment, grounds and seasonal upkeep, housekeeping and laundry, renovations and capital projects, vendor and contractor relationships, and the fire, life safety and emergency preparedness that keep everyone secure, all in keeping with the Department of Seniors and Long-Term Care maintenance standards. Because The Meadows is an essential service, you are the one we count on to act immediately when something can’t wait. If you take pride in a building that quietly works, and in the lives lived inside it, you will enjoy interacting with our residents and participate in enriching lives every day, in accordance with the Mission, Vision, Values, Standards, Policies and Procedures of The Meadows.

This is a planned transition. The successful candidate will benefit from a supported orientation and knowledge-transfer period alongside our current director before assuming the role fully.

WHAT YOU NEED TO HAVE:

Demonstrate sincere willingness and passion to engage and participate with those who live in our home and lead those who work in our home to enhance residents’ social, emotional, physical and spiritual needs.
7+ years of experience in commercial building operations and maintenance, preferably in a health care or long-term care setting. Post-secondary diploma or certification in a related field (building systems, engineering technology, a recognized trade, or facilities management) or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
3+ years of people management and supervisory experience, with the ability to motivate and lead people and projects in a unionized environment.
A hands-on working leader: this role is director, manager and supervisor in one, leading a team of Maintenance Workers and the Environmental Services and Laundry teams while remaining ready to pick up the tools.
Solid experience and understanding of facility risk management, health care building and fire codes, energy and utilities management, HVAC, electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems, and grounds maintenance.
Experience planning, scheduling and documenting preventative maintenance, repairs and inspections in accordance with the Nova Scotia maintenance standards for long-term care facilities (Department of Seniors and Long-Term Care).
Experience sourcing vendors, obtaining and evaluating quotes, negotiating service contracts, and coordinating contractors, renovations and capital projects.
Experience preparing and managing departmental budgets and analyzing variances.
Knowledge of fire and life safety systems, emergency preparedness planning, and the Nova Scotia Occupational Health and Safety Act.
Above average interpersonal, judgment and problem-solving skills; well organized, self-disciplined and resourceful with the ability to plan and set conflicting priorities and work independently.
A collaborative colleague who works well with other department heads and the management team, and brings a customer-service mindset to every interaction — including warm, respectful day-to-day contact with the residents who live in our home, their families, staff and vendors.
Strong communication skills (verbal and written) and solid computer and technical literacy and comfort, including MS365 suite, AI technologies, and experience with maintenance, scheduling and building-systems software, or the willingness to obtain it.
Ability to hold in confidence all matters about residents, care team members, and the facility.
The Meadows is an essential service: this position requires 24/7 on-call availability and the ability to act immediately in response to building, plant or life safety emergencies.
A valid driver's license and access to reliable transportation.

WHAT WE’D LOVE YOU TO HAVE:

Certified Engineering Technologist (C.E.T.), journeyperson trade certification, or a facilities management designation.
Previous leadership experience in a long-term care or health care environment.
Experience leading an Occupational Health and Safety Committee and developing emergency and business continuity plans.
Knowledge of building codes, safety regulations, and infection prevention and control practices.
Technical and IT aptitude — comfort with computerized maintenance management or work-order software, building automation and monitoring systems, and everyday information technology and troubleshooting.

What we offer: The Meadows offers a comprehensive compensation package, including a defined-benefit pension plan, employer-paid health and dental benefits, long-term disability (LTD) and life insurance coverage, and paid leave — provided through Health Association Nova Scotia.

To apply, please submit your cover letter and resume through our website at www.themeadowstvm.ca/join-our-team. Applications are accepted online only. For questions about this position, please contact Abel Samuel, HR Director, at (902) 881-3362.

Offers of employment conditional upon providing a satisfactory criminal

record check and a vulnerable sector registry check. We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
