Facilities Managers
Facilities Managers are the university community’s primary contact point, and act as the faculties and departments’ direct contact person for any issues or concerns regarding their space. Each building on campus is assigned a Facilities Manager, and they are responsible for working closely with faculties and departments to understand their needs and expectations to support the university’s vision and mission. This individual is your connection to services offered by our Facilities teams, and they are here to help you with any building-related issues, requests, and concerns.
You can look up the name and contact information for your Facilities Manager directly or contact the Service Centre at 604-822-2173.
You can also view the UBC Campus Zone Map (PDF) to determine your building’s zone.
