Description
McMaster-Carr has helped keep industry moving for 125 years. Customers rely on us to deliver the right parts quickly and accurately so they can reduce downtime, solve urgent problems, and keep critical operations running. That level of service depends on strong systems, disciplined processes, and people who care about getting the details right.
We build our business the same way we support our customers: by solving real operational problems, improving continuously, and holding a high standard for execution. Our teams work closely across functions, learn quickly, and take pride in making a meaningful impact.
We're looking for someone to help build and scale the way we use our Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to keep automation and critical building systems up and running. This role will help create clear, consistent standards for how equipment, work orders, preventive maintenance, labor tracking, spare parts, and audits are managed across sites. It’s an operational systems role for someone who understands maintenance environments, is comfortable working in CMMS / EAM, and can help local teams adopt strong, practical standards.
What You'll Do
This role offers the chance to help define how maintenance systems are used across a growing network with a strategic plan for automating distribution operations. You will have visible impact on site operations, maintenance planning and our ability to make data-driven decisions. It is a good fit for someone who likes practical process improvement, cross-site influence, and building standards that make operations better.
Build and improve CMMS standards, using EAM, across multiple facilities.
Define consistent approaches to equipment naming, preventive maintenance plans, work order workflows, labor tracking, spare parts, and audit routines
Partner with site teams to shape a scalable operating model that can be used across the network as we grow
Partner with Engineering, Facilities, and Operations teams on maintenance optimization, spares strategy, and broader company initiatives

Support proactive maintenance planning by improving PM quality, scheduling, and execution discipline
Monitor adoption of standards and follow up on gaps through audits and process reviews
