Facilities Manager

A facilities manager is responsible for the day-to-day operation and maintenance of a building's physical infrastructure, often including energy systems.

Definition

A facilities manager oversees the operational upkeep of a building — maintenance, safety, space management, and often energy systems as part of a broader remit. Energy monitoring is typically one tool among several the facilities manager relies on to identify and resolve operational issues.

Why It Matters

Facilities managers are often the people best positioned to act quickly on energy anomalies, since they have direct operational control over the equipment involved.
