Who's Hiring
What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in director of facilities and maintenance jobs.
- Bachelor's degree in facilities management, engineering, construction management, or a related field
- 7-10 years of progressive facilities or property management experience, including supervisory roles
- Proficiency with computerized maintenance management systems such as CMMS or IWMS platforms

- Certified Facility Manager (CFM) or Facilities Management Professional (FMP) credential preferred
Tips for Your Director of Facilities and Maintenance Job Search
Quantify your managed portfolio on your resume
Hiring managers want to see the scale you've overseen. List total square footage managed, number of buildings, annual maintenance budget, and headcount of direct reports. Without those numbers, your resume reads the same as a facilities coordinator's.
List every relevant certification you hold
Certifications like CFM, FMP, CEFP, or OSHA 30 separate director-level candidates from generalists. Put them in a dedicated credentials section near the top of your resume so reviewers confirm your qualifications before reading your work history.
Target postings by asset type, not just title
A director role at a hospital campus, a manufacturing plant, and a Class A office tower each demands different expertise. Filter openings by industry and location type so your application matches the specific operational environment the employer is hiring for.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists director of facilities and maintenance openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare a capital project case study for interviews
Expect at least one scenario question about managing a large renovation or infrastructure replacement. Walk in with a specific project: scope, budget variance, contractor coordination challenges, and final outcome. Vague answers about 'overseeing projects' won't distinguish you at the director level.
Negotiate deferred maintenance liability before accepting
Before signing an offer, ask about the current state of the facilities and whether there's a backlog of deferred work. Knowing what you're inheriting lets you negotiate a realistic first-year budget, set achievable goals with leadership, and protect your professional reputation from day one.
Director of Facilities and Maintenance Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most director of facilities and maintenances?
USD, Wendy's, and Xanterra are hiring the most director of facilities and maintenances right now, with openings concentrated in New York, Texas, and Virginia, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Healthcare systems, university campuses, and large industrial operators tend to post the most consistent volume at this level.
How many director of facilities and maintenance jobs are remote?
About 14% of director of facilities and maintenance openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of overseeing physical assets and on-site teams. The sub-areas most likely to offer hybrid flexibility are regional or portfolio-oversight roles where directors manage multiple sites through on-site managers rather than performing daily walk-throughs themselves.
How do you become a director of facilities and maintenance?
Start in a frontline maintenance or facilities coordinator role to build hands-on systems knowledge, then move into a supervisor or manager position to develop budget and team leadership experience. Earning a CFM or FMP credential accelerates promotion. Most directors reach the role after progressing through facilities manager or assistant director positions, often within the same organization or sector.
Can you get hired as a director of facilities and maintenance with little experience?
Moving directly into a director title with minimal experience is uncommon because the role requires overseeing large budgets, capital projects, and multi-trade teams. Candidates who make the jump earlier typically come from related fields like construction project management or engineering management, where they've owned comparable scope. Targeting smaller organizations or single-site director roles is a realistic entry point for strong managers who lack large-portfolio experience.
What does the director of facilities and maintenance interview process look like?
Most employers run a first-round phone or video screen focused on your experience managing building systems and teams, followed by one or two in-person rounds that include behavioral questions, scenario-based problems about emergency repairs or budget overruns, and sometimes a facility walk-through where you assess the site. Final-stage interviews often involve the CFO or COO given the budget responsibility, and reference checks typically focus on your performance managing contractors and capital projects.
Where can I find and apply to director of facilities and maintenance jobs?
You can find and apply to director of facilities and maintenance jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search for roles that match your industry background, location preference, and portfolio size, then apply directly to each listing that fits your experience.
