Full Job Description

Facilities & Maintenance Officer – Hands-On Role

Employment Type: Full-Time
Position: Facilities & Maintenance Officer

About the Role

We are seeking a practical and reliable Facilities & Maintenance Officer to take responsibility for the day-to-day upkeep and maintenance of our facility and surrounding premises.

This is a highly hands-on role, with approximately 90% of your time spent completing maintenance and facility-related tasks yourself. You will also coordinate external contractors where specialist work is required, negotiate competitive pricing with suppliers and service providers, and ensure the overall site is maintained to a high standard.

The property also includes a heritage house located on the premises, which requires ongoing care, general maintenance and coordination of appropriate repairs while maintaining the character and condition of the building.

This role would suit someone with a strong maintenance, handyman, facilities, trades assistant or property maintenance background who enjoys variety and taking ownership of a site.

Key Responsibilities

Carry out general maintenance and repairs across the facility and surrounding premises
Perform minor repairs, basic carpentry, patching, painting and general handyman duties
Identify maintenance issues and complete repairs where possible
Coordinate and book external contractors for specialist maintenance and repair work
Obtain and compare quotes from contractors and service providers
Negotiate pricing and service agreements to achieve better value for the business
Manage preventative and scheduled maintenance requirements
Maintain the heritage house located on the property and coordinate specialist works when required
Conduct regular inspections of buildings, equipment and surrounding areas
Assist with minor plumbing, electrical or mechanical maintenance within your level of competency
Coordinate servicing of equipment and facility infrastructure
Maintain maintenance records, contractor details and service schedules
Ensure contractors comply with site safety requirements
Assist with general grounds and property maintenance as required
Potentially complete electrical test and tagging of equipment
Candidates with an existing Test & Tag qualification are highly regarded; however, training may be provided for the right person who is willing to obtain the required qualification

About You

We are looking for someone who is genuinely comfortable working with their hands and solving problems rather than spending most of the day behind a desk.

Ideally, you will have:

Previous experience in facilities maintenance, property maintenance, handyman work, trades assistance or a similar hands-on role
Strong general maintenance and practical repair skills
Confidence using hand and power tools
Ability to identify maintenance problems and determine whether they can be repaired internally or require a contractor
Experience coordinating contractors and maintenance service providers
Confidence obtaining quotes and negotiating pricing
Good communication and organisational skills
Ability to work independently and prioritise maintenance requirements
Strong attention to detail and pride in maintaining a well-presented facility
A proactive approach to preventative maintenance
Current driver's licence
Test & Tag qualification highly regarded, or willingness to obtain one

A trade background such as carpentry, mechanical fitting, electrical, plumbing, building maintenance or general construction would be advantageous but is not essential.

What We’re Looking For

This is not a traditional office-based Facilities Officer position. We are looking for someone who is:

Hands-on and practical
Comfortable getting involved in repairs and maintenance
Resourceful and able to troubleshoot problems
Commercially minded when dealing with contractors
Able to negotiate better pricing rather than simply accepting the first quote
Reliable and able to take ownership of the overall condition of the property
Respectful of the additional care required when maintaining a heritage building

What’s on Offer

Full-time, stable position
Varied role with plenty of hands-on work
Opportunity to take ownership of the maintenance of an entire facility
Combination of practical maintenance and contractor coordination
Opportunity to develop additional skills and qualifications, including Test & Tag
Long-term opportunity for the right person

If you are a practical, hands-on person who enjoys fixing things, maintaining properties and making sure facilities operate smoothly, we would like to hear from you.

Apply now with your resume outlining your maintenance, facilities, trade or handyman experience.

Pay: $70,000.00 – $80,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
