Requisition ID : 116783

Associate Executive Director Operations

Johns Hopkins University is seeking an Associate Executive Director Operations (AEDO) at the Hopkins Bloomberg Center (HBC) located at 555 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington D.C. The ideal candidate shall provide on-site leadership and asset / facilities / hospitality management oversight of internal staff and third-party property management and facilities management firms contracted by the University.

The AEDO holds primary responsibility for the facilities and operation of the HBC, a 435,000 square foot, 12-story academic facility and conference center serving multiple university divisions. As the flagship Johns Hopkins asset in Washington D.C., the HBC is the academic home to faculty, staff and students from multiple divisions, including School of Advanced International Studies, the Carey Business School, the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and the new School of Government and Policy. In addition, it houses research centers from the Bloomberg School of Public Health and other divisions, as well as various University Administration and staff functions. Aside from classrooms and convening spaces, the building includes a state-of-the-art 365-seat theater and media suites, a gallery, a leased coffee shop, leased retail café / restaurant, a gym and multiple outdoor terraces.

Approximately 2,000 students, faculty and staff are in the building on an average day. The HBC also hosts high-profile events frequently (weekly and sometimes daily) that are critical to the brand image of The Johns Hopkins University.

The activities in the building, together with the unique facility, require a different approach and higher level of oversight, management and coordination than is expected with typical asset management. Third-party property / facilities management firms and their teams of on-site professionals manage and direct much of the daily operations of the assigned portfolio under the direction of the AEDO. The AEDO is the institutional representative of the building customers (tenants), and stakeholders located on the property to the contracted entities and is ultimately responsible for operations, physical space and amenities, including special projects and logistical / crisis response. The AEDO provides active direction and oversight to contracted firms and services (working closely with managers, engineers, and custodial services), and directly manages internal teams responsible for general operations, IT / AV services, scheduling, finance, HR and public safety functions. The AEDO reports to the Executive Director and works closely with tenant divisions, contributing divisions and others to ensure the property is maintained and operating in accordance with expectations of the tenants, University leadership, external guests, and other stakeholders.

The AEDO will work with the HBC staff and relevant stakeholders to meet the finance, accounting and budgeting needs of the HBC, including provision of financial analysis related to leasing and capital decisions, leasing strategy and evaluation, procurement oversight, asset and capital improvement budgeting, long-term strategic asset management plans, management coordination, and finance-related stakeholder communications.

The adjacent multi-family housing asset (565 Pennsylvania Avenue) and leased retail space are overseen by the Johns Hopkins Facilities and Real Estate (JHFRE) team. The AEDO will coordinate closely with JHFRE partners for ongoing and future construction and selected asset improvement activities in and around HBC.
