Ready to lead the way in creating a safe, vibrant, and well-maintained campus environment?

CQUniversity is seeking a proactive and skilled Facilities Coordinator to oversee daily maintenance operations, supervise a small team, and help deliver minor facilities projects at one of our campuses.

With a strong focus on communication and collaboration, you'll set priorities, delegate tasks and lead by example to foster a positive and productive team culture.

This is a physically active role that involves grounds work, minor building maintenance and outdoor tasks in all weather conditions. You'll need to be adaptable, proactive and capable of managing competing demands while staying focused on safety, service and results.

If you're ready to make a meaningful contribution in a dynamic and community-focused university setting, we'd love to hear from you.

Be Rewarded
  • 17% superannuation (with the choice to join an award-winning superfund)
  • 6 weeks annual leave (incl. Christmas and New Year closure)
  • 10 days personal/sick leave, plus 5 days carer's leave
  • 7.25 hours engaged service leave
  • Fantastic professional and career development opportunities
  • Up to 26 weeks (six months) paid parental leave
  • Access to an Employee Assistance Program and Fitness Passport

Position Requirements
  • Demonstrated supervisory experience, including the ability to prioritise, delegate and coordinate daily maintenance activities while fostering a positive team culture.
  • Strong trade skills and physical capability to perform hands-on operational tasks such as maintenance, repairs and grounds work, both independently and as part of a team.
  • Knowledge and understanding of workplace health and safety management strategies and relevant legislative requirements, with a commitment to safe work practices.
  • Well-developed interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to liaise effectively with a diverse range of stakeholders and deliver a high standard of customer service.
