SERIES CONCEPT

Laundry/Linen Service Managers plan and administer the total operations in
a campus laundry and related linen service area; and perform other related
duties as required.

Incumbents typically develop and administer policies and procedures
relating to receiving, processing, and delivery of laundry items; plan and
administer the ordering, maintenance and replacement of machinery and/or
material in a campus laundry; coordinate and supervise the hiring, training,
assigning and evaluating of all subordinate employees; develop and
coordinate work schedules; supervise the maintenance of quality control;
supervise the accounting and billing systems; prepare budget requests and/or
administer approval budgets; may maintain liaison with other campus 
departments; may negotiate contracts with other campuses, outside vendors 
and/or other laundry operations; may maintain working relationships with other
laundry operations; and may conduct surveys of laundry equipment, methods
and procedures to increase the efficiency of operations.

Classes in the Laundry/Linen Service Manager series are distinguished from
other Linen Service classes in that incumbents typically have management
responsibility for the total operations in a campus laundry and related linen
service operation.

The series consists of two levels with the distinction between levels based
on the size, nature and complexity of the laundry and related linen service
operation. Laundry/Linen Service Manager is the first management level and
Senior Laundry/Linen Service Manager is the second management level.
