Job Summary
Description
Keep the Cheetah Clean running!
We're a fast-growing car wash company with 16 locations across Kentucky and Tennessee, looking for a Director of Maintenance to lead the team that keeps every tunnel moving. If you'd rather fix a problem for good than fix it twice, this is your seat.
What You'll Do (and LOVE Doing)
- Lead the Crew: Build, coach, and lead our maintenance team across all 16 sites, setting the standard for fast, quality work.
- Own Uptime: Troubleshoot and repair tunnels, conveyors, dryers, pumps, water reclaim, chemical systems, and PLCs.
- Get Ahead of It: Build a preventive maintenance program that catches problems before our customers ever notice.
- Run It Like a Business: Manage the maintenance budget, vendors, and parts inventory, and make the case for smart equipment investments.
- Grow With Us: Help plan and commission new sites, remodels, and equipment installs as we expand.
- Keep It Safe: Champion lockout/tagout, chemical safety, and OSHA compliance across every location.
Requirements
What Makes You the Perfect Fit
- Experienced: 7+ years in maintenance, including 3+ years leading a team in a multi-site, industrial, or facilities setting.
- Hands-On Technical Pro: Strong mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic skills; PLC experience is a big plus.
- Car Wash Savvy: Tunnel, water reclaim, and chemical system experience puts you at the front of the line.
- Organized Under Pressure: You can juggle priorities across multiple sites and stay calm when a tunnel goes down on a busy Saturday.
- Road Ready: Valid driver's license, clean driving record, and happy to travel across Kentucky and Tennessee.
What's In It for You
- Competitive Pay
- Health Insurance: 80/20 coverage to keep you feeling great.
- 401(k): With company match to help secure your future.
- PTO: Enjoy up to 4 weeks of paid time off.
- Free Car Washes: Because shiny cars are just better.
