Facility Operations Services

Facility operations specialists in the 1640 series manage the operation, maintenance and repair of buildings, grounds and utility systems: planning preventive maintenance, overseeing custodial and trades work, managing space and leases, running work-order systems and administering the service contracts that keep a site functioning. The work exists wherever the government owns or runs property, which is why this page draws on the National Park Service, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the U.S. Courts, the Geological Survey, the Army National Guard, Army special operations and the Department of Agriculture.

Recent listings have included facility operations specialists and supervisory facility operations specialists, a facility management specialist, and a space and facilities specialist.

Applying tip: announcements rate experience with the specific systems in the facility, HVAC, electrical, fire protection, elevators, and with building codes and maintenance management software, so name the systems, the square footage and the budgets you have managed. Guard positions may require military membership; check “Who May Apply”. The remote vs telework guide explains the two location tiers shown on each listing.
