Facilities Manager
Nolinor is seeking a Facilities Manager to take ownership of the group’s real estate portfolio — operational hangars and commercial spaces — across multiple Canadian locations (Mirabel, Edmonton, Yellowknife). This is a full management role: budgets, regulatory compliance, vendor coordination, project planning, and construction supervision. Based in Mirabel, the Facilities Manager is the central point of decision-making for all buildings and installations supporting our operations. This person will be based at the site located at 1499 Boulevard Michèle-Bohec in Blainville.
Responsibilities
- Request management and prioritization : receive, assess, and prioritize maintenance requests from all sites. Track each request through to resolution and keep internal teams informed of work progress.
- Vendor and work coordination: identify needs, obtain quotes, schedule interventions, and supervise external service providers on site. Ensure that work is completed to agreed standards, within established timelines and budgets. Manage recurring service contracts (HVAC, snow removal, cleaning, etc.).
- Preventive maintenance: maintain and follow a preventive maintenance schedule for all facilities: roofing, mechanical and electrical systems, industrial doors, and related equipment. Keep maintenance logs, certifications, and inspection reports up to date.
- Building compliance and safety: ensure compliance with OHS standards, building codes, and airport landlord requirements. Track mandatory inspections and coordinate the required work permits and authorizations.
- Budget and administrative follow-up : establish and maintain the annual maintenance budget by site. Track expenditures, validate vendor invoices, and manage variances. Present progress reports to management and make recommendations to optimize costs while maintaining operational standards.
- Project planning and supervision : plan and lead renovation, fit-out, and compliance upgrade projects: scope definition, tendering, contractor selection, site supervision, and delivery. Serve as the primary liaison between contractors and internal teams. Flag risks and budget variances to management in real time.
Required skills
- Coordination and follow-through : manage multiple vendors and open files in parallel with rigour.

- Administrative rigour : ensure documentation, file follow-up, and loop closure
- Autonomy and initiative : identify issues and propose solutions without waiting to be asked.

- Functional knowledge of building systems: electrical, plumbing, HVAC
- Ability to manage multiple files simultaneously with rigour and autonomy
- Effective communication with vendors, internal teams, and management
