Description
Facilities & CapEx Coordinator
Location: Alcoa, Tennessee
Department: Facilities & Equipment Maintenance
Reports To: Senior Director of Facilities & Equipment Maintenance
Position Type: Full-Time
Position Summary
The Facilities & CapEx Coordinator plays a key role in keeping facility projects, capital expenditures, equipment orders, vendors, purchasing, financial processes, and department systems organized and moving forward across a multi-site car wash organization.
This position serves as the administrative and financial coordination hub for the Facilities & Equipment Maintenance team. The Coordinator works closely with Facilities leadership, the Facilities Project Manager, Operations, Finance/Accounting, and outside vendors to ensure projects are properly established, equipment orders are tracked, vendors are ready to work, purchase orders are in place, invoices are processed accurately, budgets remain current, and outstanding items are followed through to completion.
This role also supports administration of the systems used by the Facilities and Maintenance teams, including onboarding and offboarding team members and maintaining appropriate system access.
This is not simply a data-entry or administrative position. We are looking for someone who takes ownership, identifies gaps, follows up without being asked, and creates structure in a fast-moving environment with many projects happening simultaneously.

- Maintain visibility into outstanding commitments and unpaid invoices.
- Work with Accounting and vendors to resolve invoice discrepancies, payment questions, credits, and other issues.
Vendor Management & Onboarding

- Collect and maintain required vendor documentation, including W-9s, certificates of insurance, agreements, and other required documentation.
- Ensure vendors are properly established in company systems before work begins.
- Maintain organized vendor records and contact information.
- Serve as a primary administrative contact for vendors regarding onboarding, POs, invoices, payments, and documentation.
- Follow up proactively with vendors and internal stakeholders when required information is missing.
Facilities & Maintenance Systems Administration
- Coordinate onboarding and offboarding of Facilities and Maintenance team members within department systems.
- Set up, update, and remove user access as employees join the team, change roles, transfer locations, or leave the organization.
- Maintain accurate user, role, location, and access information within applicable systems.
- Coordinate with IT, HR, Operations, and other departments when system access requires additional support or approval.
- Help maintain department systems, user lists, distribution groups, shared resources, and related administrative records.
- Support adoption and consistent use of department platforms such as MaintainX, Asana, purchasing systems, and other Facilities and Maintenance tools.

- Help ensure completed projects are properly closed out financially and administratively.
- Maintain accurate information across systems such as Asana, MaintainX, purchasing/ERP platforms, and shared project trackers.
Reporting & Follow-Through
- Prepare recurring Facilities and CapEx status reports for leadership.
- Maintain visibility into open projects, equipment orders, outstanding POs, unpaid invoices, budget variances, vendor issues, and overdue action items.
- Proactively identify items that are stalled or at risk and bring them to the appropriate owner.
- Follow up across multiple departments and vendors to ensure commitments are completed.
- Help improve and document repeatable Facilities and CapEx processes.
- Develop simple dashboards, trackers, and reporting tools that make project and financial status easy to understand.
