What sets JLL apart is our culture of collaboration, locally and across the globe, and as a Facilities Manager, you'll embody this through your partnerships with property managers, contractors, and stakeholders. This role demands a proactive, solutions-focused individual who can balance strategic oversight with hands-on problem-solving, ensuring compliance with all legislative requirements while delivering exceptional service that reflects positively in client feedback.

• Procure and tender contractors for planned preventative maintenance contracts and various capital projects, ensuring competitive pricing and quality service delivery while maintaining compliance with procurement policies
• Conduct regular inspections of common areas, building exteriors, foyers, carparks, fire stairs, and passageways to identify defects, safety hazards, or cleanliness issues, arranging timely rectification and maintaining presentation standards
• Maintain comprehensive building documentation including logbooks, contractor induction manuals, risk and compliance registers, and ensure all procedures are implemented and knowledge of operational systems is current across the team
• Implement and monitor security services, oversee cleaning contractor performance through spot checks, and ensure adequate toiletry supplies and cleanliness standards are maintained throughout the property
• Program and adjust building systems including time clocks for public holidays, access card permissions, and afterhours air conditioning scheduling to optimize tenant comfort and operational efficiency
• Ensure all contractors receive up-to-date site inductions and training, verify permits where applicable, and maintain strict adherence to building rules and safety protocols during all maintenance and construction activities
