Regional Facilities Manager (RFM)

The RFM owns the systems, standards, performance oversight, and development of facilities leadership capability necessary to deliver long-term operational stability and asset preservation.

An effective RFM functions as both a people-focused leader and asset manager, bridging site-level execution with regional and corporate strategy. Success is measured by sustained facilities performance, well-developed Facilities Managers, and resilient operations that perform regardless of individual property challenges.
