Job Title: Building Operator (AR2)

Location: 4126 Norland Ave, Burnaby, BC V5G 3S8

Job Summary:

This hands-on position reports to the Director of Facilities and works closely with other Facilities staff, the CMMS Management Planner, and the Facilities Systems & Asset Analyst to ensure that the union's buildings are safe, well maintained, and operating effectively to service our membership. The BCGEU operates 13 buildings across British Columbia. The Building Operator checks in with the CMMS Management Planner each workday, receives work orders and direction through the Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS), completes assigned work in a timely manner, and maintains accurate completion records.

Key Responsibilities:

Building Operator Activities

Operate, monitor, inspect, test, adjust, troubleshoot, and maintain assigned building systems, equipment, and controls.
Perform routine and minor corrective maintenance on HVAC, boiler and pressure-vessel, plumbing, electrical, mechanical, controls, security, life-safety, lighting, building-envelope, interior, exterior, and grounds systems within the position's qualifications.
Conduct scheduled building rounds, record operating readings, identify abnormal or unsafe conditions, and take appropriate corrective action.
Act as the designated power engineer for assigned sites, where designated by BCGEU, in accordance with applicable certification and regulatory requirements.
Identify and promptly report major building-system issues, equipment repairs, replacement needs, or work outside the position's scope to the Director of Facilities and CMMS Management Planner.
Maintain inventory control of tools, equipment, spare parts, and supplies and advise when replenishment or replacement is required.
Issue and maintain assigned security cards, keys, and alarm codes in accordance with approved access-control procedures and delegated authority.

CMMS Work Orders and Daily Coordination

Check in with the CMMS Management Planner each workday to review priorities, site conditions, safety concerns, and assigned work.
Receive, review, and complete preventive, corrective, inspection, and emergency work orders assigned or directed through the CMMS.
Complete work orders within established priorities and timelines and promptly communicate delays, access issues, safety concerns, material needs, or changes in scope.
Update and close work orders with accurate labour, material, equipment-condition, action, and follow-up information, including notes or photographs where appropriate.
Assist the CMMS Management Planner and Facilities Systems & Asset Analyst by verifying asset information, equipment condition, service history, field measurements, and operational records.

Emergency Response

Respond promptly to alarms, leaks, floods, loss of heat or cooling, power disruptions, equipment failures, security incidents, and other urgent facility conditions.
Provide scheduled or directed after-hours emergency response and support safe shutdown, temporary controls, service restoration, and follow-up documentation.
Contact emergency services or qualified contractors and escalate urgent conditions to the appropriate BCGEU personnel when required.

Contractor Coordination

Coordinate contractor site access, orientation, shutdowns, permits, escorts, work areas, and operational requirements.
Communicate approved scope and relevant building, safety, asbestos, security, and operational requirements before work begins.
Confirm that required contractor certificates of insurance and WorkSafeBC clearance documentation are current and report missing or expired documentation.
Monitor contractor work for adherence to scope, site rules, safety requirements, and workmanship expectations and report deficiencies promptly.
Verify that completed work areas are safe and orderly and that required service reports, test results, warranties, and closeout documents are received.

Occupational Health and Safety

Perform work in accordance with WorkSafeBC requirements, applicable codes, Technical Safety BC requirements, BCGEU policies, and established safe-work procedures.
Use required lockout, fall-protection, electrical-safety, hot-work, ladder, chemical-handling, and other controls within the position's training and authority.
Support mandatory inspections and testing for life-safety and regulated building systems and participate in safety meetings, drills, incident reporting, and corrective actions as assigned.

Policies, Procedures, and Records

Use the CMMS and other approved BCGEU systems, including records-management and service-request systems, to maintain accurate maintenance logs and operational documentation.
Assist with asset tagging, labels, signage, drawings, manuals, inspection records, equipment histories, and updates to established procedures.
Follow BCGEU financial, procurement, records-management, security, privacy, and operational policies and procedures.

Budget Support

Provide requested maintenance records, contractor quotations, supply needs, and equipment information to assist the Director of Facilities and CMMS Management Planner with preparation of the annual operating maintenance budget.

Other

Travel occasionally to other BCGEU locations within British Columbia to complete assigned work orders, inspections, emergency response, or operational support; travel is required for the position.
Support facility and equipment logistics during labour disputes, emergencies, special events, or other operational requirements as directed.
Perform other Building Operator and facilities-related duties consistent with the position's responsibilities, qualifications, and assigned authority.
