Contribute to short- and long-term planning for Corporate Real Estate and Property Management.
Lead EHS, facility availability, and DR contingency planning/execution for Schwab's data centers and critical facilities.

Build collaborative relationships across client organizations and external service providers at all levels.
Coordinate cross-functional IT and Facilities teams.
Stay organized and detail-oriented; manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
Work effectively under pressure-independently and in a collaborative, team-oriented environment-using sound judgment.
Balance business needs and strategic goals while managing complex operations in a multipurpose technology campus.
Financial reporting/accountability experience for facilities capital and operating expenses.
Strong verbal and written communication skills.
Customer-focused with strong relationship management skills.
Strong project management skills.

This role is "always on" and requires 24x7x365 availability, as needed.
