Regional RME Manager

Reliability, Maintenance, and Engineering (RME) is hiring a Regional RME Manager to lead and oversee RME operations across multiple sites across Mexico. This is a leadership role in the country, responsible for driving safety culture, equipment reliability and operational excellence across our busiest buildings.

We are looking for a strategic, hands-on leader who can operate independently across geographically dispersed sites, influence senior stakeholders across RME, Operations, and cross-functional teams, and deliver results in a fast-paced, high-volume environment. This role requires someone who thrives in ambiguity, communicates with clarity, and raises the bar on standards — from safety and reliability to people development and financial governance.

• Multi-site leadership experience in maintenance, reliability, or engineering environments
• English proficiency (regular participation in meetings conducted in English)
• Demonstrated analytical skills, ability to use data and metrics to drive decisions and business cases
• Experience managing vendor relationships and influencing external service providers to successful outcomes
• Strong communication skills
• This is a full on-site role in one of our critical sites with 50–75% travel based on business needs (non-negotiable)
