Hiring: Repair and Maintenance Coordinator
The Repairs and Maintenance Coordinator role at Yardstick will be the point person for all repairs and maintenance concerns across TWOYI sites.

Department: Construction and Facilities
Work Location: San Juan
Responsibilities:
1. Own the request pipeline
- Receive all R&M concerns from every channel (Slack, Whatsapp, Viber, email, calls) and log them in one central tracker.
- Classify each concern by urgency (critical, high, routine) and acknowledge the requester promptly.
- Keep requesters updated on status until the job is closed.
2. Coordinate suppliers and service providers
- Assess the issue, define the scope of work, and request quotations.
- Assign the right supplier, schedule the work, and secure mall work permits, gate passes, and after-hours slots.
- Be on site or verify completion before sign-off, and follow up on warranty claims and callbacks.
3. Work with Operations, Purchasing, and Finance
- Align with Operations teams on schedules so repairs cause minimal disruption to sales.
- Coordinate with Purchasing to raise POs before work starts (except approved emergencies).
- Submit complete documents (PO, invoice, completion report, photos) to Finance for timely supplier payment.
4. Run preventive maintenance
- Build and maintain a preventive maintenance calendar per site (aircon cleaning, grease traps, pest control, filter changes, electrical checks).
- Track recurring issues and recommend permanent fixes over repeated band-aid repairs.
5. Manage vendors and costs
- Maintain an accredited vendor list with contact details, rates, response times, and warranty records.
- Compare quotes, negotiate fair pricing, and flag underperforming or overpriced vendors.
- Track R&M spend per site and report open jobs, costs, and recurring issues to management.
6. Support new branch openings and turnovers
- Assist with fit-out punch lists, equipment installation coordination, and handover documentation for new sites.

- Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, or Civil preferred) or a related technical course. Candidates with a technical or vocational background and strong coordination experience will also be considered.
- At least 2 years of experience in facilities, building maintenance, property management, or R&M coordination. Multi-site, retail, or F&B experience is a strong plus.
- Working knowledge of aircon, electrical, plumbing, and refrigeration systems, enough to assess scope, evaluate quotes, and verify work quality.
- Familiar with mall admin requirements for contractors (work permits, gate passes, insurance).
- Proficient in Google Sheets or similar trackers. Experience with an ERP (Odoo preferred) for POs is a plus.
- Clear communicator in English and Filipino, and firm but fair with suppliers.
