Building Supervisor
The day-to-day duties of building supervisors vary based on the type and scope of the property where I work. These core responsibilities, however, are universal:
Assess Maintenance Needs
Building supervisors assess maintenance and repair needs on all mechanical systems and equipment and perform light maintenance tasks. For heavier maintenance work and repair jobs, building supervisors hire appropriate contractors.
Inspect Building and Grounds
Building supervisors inspect the general condition of the building and surrounding property for cleanliness, overall appeal, and potential problems.
Manage Staff
Building supervisors evaluate and supervise building staff, assign work tasks, and train new employees.
Coordinate Inspectors, Vendors, and Contractors
Building supervisors coordinate professionals coming to the building and grounds, such as code inspectors, vendors making deliveries, and contractors performing work on the property.
Schedule Community Spaces
Building supervisors manage community areas within the building property and prepare them for scheduled events.
Enforce Policies
Building supervisors enforce building security and safety policies and train staff members on proper policy protocols.
Address Resident Complaints The building supervisor is the face of the building itself and as such addresses complaints from residents and regulars within the building. Building supervisors make decisions to resolve these complaints as they arise.
