Brisbane, Australia Scape Full time

WHO WE ARE

Scape’s vision is to be the Earth’s best living company (so you can see straight off the bat we are a conservative bunch). We are a leading provider of student accommodation in Australia. We currently have the capacity to provide a home to 17,000 students (and are growing) and we don't simply provide a bed and roof; we also provide a unique, amazing experience and a safe environment to help students make the most of their studies.

THE ROLE

Our Facilities team is expanding, and we have an exciting new opportunity for a hands-on Facilities Manager to join us in Brisbane. You’ll be managing the Facilities team and overseeing a Brisbane-based portfolio, working alongside an enthusiastic team that maintains some of the best purpose-built student accommodation facilities in Australia.

In this role, you'll be at the forefront of maintaining our assets in top-notch condition, ensuring our residents and team members enjoy the highest standards of living. You’ll take ownership of your responsibilities, contribute to an environment of continuous improvement, and lead by example.

Key areas of responsibility include:

  • Ensuring compliance with statutory, health & safety obligations across all properties, and promptly actioning any updates to these requirements.
  • Managing programmed and reactive maintenance works across the Scape Brisbane portfolio, including overseeing contractors and collaborating with the Regional Facilities Manager on financial planning and budgets.
  • Owning defect, liability, and warranty issues across multiple properties.
  • Administering Facilities Management software, covering works, asset, and contractor management applications.
  • Leading a team of Facilities staff and working closely with the Regional Facilities Manager and other interstate Facilities Managers.
  • Contributing to the overall strategic approach of Facilities, ensuring that planning is in place to maintain the highest standards of service and that Scape is well-positioned to navigate the challenges of a dynamic economic climate.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

We’re on the lookout for a highly motivated Facilities Manager with a knack for making informed decisions in a fast-paced environment.

The successful candidate will possess the following skills and experience:

  • Experienced in a similar role
  • Exceptional organisational and coordination skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting deadlines and working under pressure.
  • Strong contractor management skills.
  • A meticulous worker with excellent attention to detail, proactive in identifying and resolving issues.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
  • A solid understanding of legal requirements and statutory obligations related to buildings.
  • Good knowledge of health and safety legislation.
  • Experience managing Defects Liability Periods (DLP) and overseeing handover processes for new buildings.

PERKS OF WORKING WITH SCAPE

At Scape, we’re all about fostering good vibes and rewarding hard work. Here are just some of the scape-tastic perks you can look forward to as part of our team:

  • Annual flu vaccinations and skin checks
  • Insurance discounts up to 10% (Bupa, nib and NobleOak)
  • A month dedicated to your well-being and health
  • “Bueller” day off to celebrate however you want in October
  • ‘Escapes’ – stay at any of our buildings in any state for up to 5 nights free of charge
  • Passionate work environment
  • Birthday leave, day to celebrate
  • Generous referral bonuses (up to $5k)
  • EAP & Headspace (mental health, nutrition, finance support & more)
  • Sonder & Duress support
  • Scape merch
  • Anytime fitness corporate discount

THE FINE PRINT

At Scape, we honour and welcome the rich heritage and contributions of First Nations and Indigenous peoples. We strive to create a workplace that embraces diversity and fosters an inclusive environment, respecting and valuing your culture, traditions, and perspectives. Join us in building a harmonious and empowered community where everyone's voice is heard and celebrated.

This is an exciting time to join a growing business that’s committed to making a difference for our student residents, stakeholders, and the community.
