    ABOUT ABS

    Since 2008, Arkansas Building Services, LLC, DBA ABS Facility Solutions, has provided a variety of services to help our clients maintain the cleanliness and upkeep of their facilities. The ABS brand provides a range of services that include janitorial and day porter services, supply management, facility management, and water/mold restoration services. The goal of our company is to be an all-inclusive maintenance partner for our clients.

     

    POSITION’S  SUMMARY

    The Facility Maintenance Support Specialist is a hybrid role, between a Facility Technician and a Facility Coordinator. This means that the FM Support Specialist will be responsible for doing some of the repairs/requests, and handling/coordinating other requests with outside vendors. 

    The Facility Maintenance Support Specialist's purpose is to assist and support the ABS Facility Management team in completing multiple functions of building operations and maintenance for a facility, campus, or portfolio of buildings. The position will perform, and/or coordinate the maintenance and corrective repair activities for these buildings. The FM Support Specialist typically works between multiple job locations on a daily basis, managing an ongoing variety of maintenance activities and projects.

    The FM Support Specialist is the first line to handling a service request from a client. This could be anything from dealing with reports of rodents in a facility, responding to litter at a building, repairing a leaky toilet, replacing a door knob, clearing a clogged sink or toilet, hanging a picture frame, putting together office furniture, changing ceiling tiles, and even troubleshooting electrical problems and kitchen equipment. The FM Support Specialist is the first to put eyes on the problem, troubleshoot the cause of the problem, and find a solution.  The FM Support Specialist will also be responsible for requesting, coordinating, and overseeing services provided by outside vendors for requests that we are unable to self-perform; for example more complex problems like electrical system issues and plumbing issues. 

     

    Essential Duties and Responsibilities

    • Respond to and perform various day-to-day maintenance requests, emergency requests, and preventative maintenance tasks. Complete maintenance and work records as required.
