Facility Operations Specialist   $60,000 USD/year

Description

LOCATION NOTE: This is a full-time, in-person position located at Alpha's Miami, FL campus.

Are you ready to bring your skills in facilities management and building operations to a school that’s redefining education? At Alpha, we’re not just maintaining buildings—we’re crafting exceptional environments where students thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. 

You’ll take ownership of maintaining and optimizing our campus, ensuring it’s safe, functional, and inspiring for everyone. This full-time role offers stability, benefits, and the chance to make a tangible impact every day.

This isn’t your typical facilities role. You’ll manage hands-on building maintenance, collaborate with vendors, and proactively tackle challenges to keep our campus running at its best.

Why you'll love this job:

  • Full-Time Benefits: As an on-site employee, you’ll enjoy full benefits, including healthcare, paid time off, and other perks to support your well-being.
  • Impactful Work: Your efforts directly contribute to a world-class learning environment for students and staff.
  • Growth Opportunities: Be part of a mission-driven organization where you can grow your career in facilities and operations.
  • Join a Movement: Alpha is revolutionizing education, and you’ll play a critical role in making it happen.
  • Relocation Support: We offer financial assistance to help you transition to Miami and join our team.

If you’re excited about creating and maintaining spaces where students and staff thrive, we’d love to hear from you!

What you will be doing

  • Maintaining and optimizing campus facilities to ensure they are safe, functional, and inspiring for students and staff.
  • Completing minor repairs and managing larger repairs by coordinating with vendors and evaluating quotes.
  • Conducting routine facility inspections, including fire safety, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems.
  • Troubleshooting basic technical issues, such as WiFi connectivity, device pairing, laptop repairs, and hardware replacement or warranty coordination.
  • Proactively identifying and addressing potential issues to minimize disruptions.

What you will NOT be doing

  • Performing routine cleaning or janitorial tasks.
  • Reacting to problems after they disrupt operations—this role is all about being proactive.
  • Taking on major repairs or issues outside your specialization without involving experts.

Key responsibilities

  • Maintain the campus at a high standard, supporting a safe, efficient, and inspiring environment for students and staff.
  • Manage vendor relationships to ensure timely and cost-efficient facility and technology support.
  • Keep technology systems up-to-date and fully functional to support a cutting-edge learning experience.

Candidate requirements

  • Able to work in-person in Miami, FL. Relocation assistance is available to help you join Alpha’s mission.
  • Demonstrated ability to independently identify and complete minor repairs (e.g., minor plumbing issues, doors and locks, patching walls, replacing light fixtures).
  • Proven experience managing vendor quotes for larger repairs.
  • Hands-on experience conducting routine facility inspections (e.g., fire safety, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems).
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot and resolve basic technical issues (e.g., WiFi, laptop repairs, hardware connectivity).
  • Fluent in English, with strong verbal and written communication skills.
