Merion Mercy is pleased to welcome Zack Charles, who will serve as our new Facilities Manager. Most recently, Zack was the Facilities Manager at Western Montgomery Career and Technology Center and has worked in the facilities field for more than a decade.
Zack possesses in-depth knowledge of a wide variety of building management, maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair procedures in all areas of facilities and mechanical systems. Zack looks forward to working with our entire community and leading on both the operational and strategic levels. While Zack and his team work with Aramark to keep our facility in outstanding shape, they are tightly woven into the fabric of our Merion Mercy community. We are thankful to all members of our maintenance team for their commitment to Merion and value the many ways they enrich our community.
