Develop and execute training plans, mentoring Automation Managers, Apprentices, and site-level technicians to expand technical capability across the network.
Monitor system KPIs, analyze performance metrics, and lead continuous improvement initiatives to improve uptime, throughput, and safety.
Champion JLL’s safety culture to ensure compliance with existing safety rules and procedures.
Provide escalation support for controls-related downtime, coordinating with local, remote, and vendor resources to restore system functionality quickly.
Participate in a 24/7 rotational on-call support schedule for automation hardware and software systems.
Travel up to 25% to support other JLL-managed client sites as needed.

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to collaborate across multiple teams and levels.
Expected to work flexible schedules, including nights, weekends, and holidays when required, 40 hours plus per week as needed.
Preferred Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent.
5+ years of leadership experience managing automation programs across multiple sites.
