At Opal Autism Centers, our environments matter. The spaces we create directly impact the children, families, and clinicians we serve every day. We are seeking an experienced, highly organized, and solutions-driven Center Facilities Manager to oversee the safety, maintenance, operations, and expansion of our ABA therapy centers across multiple states.
This is not a traditional facilities role. We are looking for someone who thrives in fast-paced, multi-site operations, can balance reactive problem solving with long-term strategic planning, and understands the importance of creating safe, welcoming, child-friendly environments that support high-quality clinical care.
The ideal candidate is proactive, responsive, and highly accountable — someone who takes ownership of projects, emergencies, vendor performance, communication, coordination, follow-through, and outcomes from start to finish.
What You’ll Do:
As the Center Facilities Manager, you will oversee the operational health of our therapy centers, including:
- Managing preventative and reactive maintenance across multiple locations
- Overseeing HVAC, plumbing, electrical, fire/life safety, access control, and security systems
- Leading vendor sourcing, RFP management, vendor bids, contract negotiations, SLA management, and vendor performance accountability
- Driving vendor consistency, responsiveness, operational quality, and cost savings across all centers
- Coordinating center openings, renovations, expansions, and facility improvement projects
- Managing construction vendors, maintenance providers, contractors, and operational readiness for new center buildouts and openings
- Managing budget, facility supplies, ordering, inventory, and center resource coordination
- Conducting site visits, facility assessments, punch walks, and operational inspections
- Ensuring compliance with safety, accessibility, and healthcare-adjacent requirements
- Partnering closely with operations and clinical leadership to minimize disruption to therapy services
- Responding to and resolving urgent facility issues and emergencies as needed
This role serves as the primary facilities point of contact for all center-related maintenance, vendor coordination, communication, and operational follow-through.
