What We're Looking For

  • 7+ years' experience in facilities management or operational engineering roles.
  • In-depth knowledge of legislated asset maintenance requirements and BCA compliance.
  • Demonstrated ability to interpret and apply technical data to improve asset performance.

  • Join a supportive, safety-first team focused on delivering excellence.
  • Enjoy career development opportunities and exposure to industry-leading asset management practices.
  • Be part of a culture that values innovation, teamwork, and continuous improvement.
