Sydney, Australia Vow Full time

**About us**

Vow is a food company - a very different one. We're creating real meat products from animal cells instead of the animal itself.

We're bringing together cutting-edge innovations in science, engineering, culinary and design to make sustainable food that's both irresistible and available to billions of people worldwide.

**The role**:
Do you like it when things _just work_? Do you like forging order from chaos? Like variety? Then join us in the Facilities team as a Facilities Manager to help improve all aspects of Vow life across our two Sydney sites in Alexandria.

As a Facilities Manager at Vow you'll be joining a team responsible for overseeing, coordinating and ensuring the completion of maintenance and continuous improvement of the property, plant and equipment across both of our Sydney sites.

The role involves a mix of planned and unplanned tasks that will see you solve many problems as they arise to ensure the safety of your fellow team members (AKA Vowzers) and our delicious products and the reliability of our growing array of equipment.

You'll use a combination of your technical know-how, great communication skills and ruthless prioritisation abilities to keep on top of it all to help us make delicious food that is safe, tastier, more nutritious, more sustainable, and ultimately more affordable than what we eat today.

**Desirable Skills and Attributes**:
We care far more about your adaptable skills than the titles you've held. We're more interested in who you are and how you approach challenges than the exact roles you've performed in the past. Some of the things that we are looking for:

- **Technical Proficiency**:You have a technical mindset; this can look like an engineering degree, tafe qualification, demonstrable experience in an engineering field or a hobby that involves you being hands on.
- **Project Leadership or Multitasking ability**:Experience in leading projects or managing tasks with multiple stakeholders with the ability to multitask and prioritize effectively.
- **Proactive problem solver**:You have proven history in being able to** **keep calm, assess a situation, decide on next steps and inform stakeholders in a timely and safe manner, no matter what the situation. You will look to identify blockers before they become a problem.
- **Strong communicator**:You have an approachable, friendly manner that encourages all team members to readily report blockers. You are able to use various communication forms (oral, written, presentations, etc.) to effectively coordinate with both internal teams and external partners.
- **Strong record keeping**:You have experience in SOP writing and/or process documentation experience
- **Computer literacy**:Familiarity with MS Office 365 or Google Gsuite, Notion, Slack etc. and a willingness to learn and utilise new platforms as needed on a regular basis
- Flexibility to carry out shift work/weekend work when required (with time in lieu accumulated accordingly)

**Bonus if you have**:

- Familiarity with food processing or bioprocessing equipment (e.g. mixers, fermenters, pumps, filters, centrifuges) or
- Familiarity with plant equipment e.g. large air compressors, specialty gasses, steam boilers, reverse osmosis systems, pumps etc.
- Management experience of any kind (teams of people, or over systems/spaces)
- Experience using a computerised maintenance management system (CMMS)

**You will**:
You'll be performing a wide range of tasks in this role, no two days will be the same. Here are some of the things you can expect:

- Drive the continuous improvement of our new and existing factory equipment as we navigate a period of rapid growth and development across the organisation
- Coordinate contractors and service technicians
- Set rosters and ensuring their completion
- Communicate on critical work to internal stakeholders
- Roll up your sleeves, getting out the service manuals, tools and giving things a go
- Responding to calls for help with equipment or new problems to solve problems on the spot
- Have a roughly 50/50 split between organisational/desk work and hands-on activity
- Minimize risks to personnel, food safety and equipment reliability

Ultimately help to build a world-first cultured meat factory that will serve as the prototype and inspiration for all that follow

**What success looks like**:

- In the first month, you'll:

- Get oriented with our most important systems/equipment across our two sites
- Start to take on responsibilities integral to the smooth running of our operations
- Perform planned and unplanned maintenance on a broad range of equipment
- By the end of 3 months, you'll:

- Be a critical contributor to our HACCP/GMP compliance requirements
- Making a real impact to the safety of your fellow Vowsers
- Be challenging how we do things and drive forward improvements
- In your first year, you'll:

- Become an expert user of our systems and may have built/implemented a few of your own. For example, overhaulin
