If you are a Senior Facilities Manager or experienced FM lead operating on a premium commercial asset, and you are ready to own a precinct rather than manage within one, this is the role that makes that step.
You will have full accountability for two premium A-grade Charter Hall towers in Melbourne CBD, including a direct client relationship, a team of three direct reports, and active involvement in a tower repositioning project. This is not a caretaker role. It is for someone who sets the standard, builds the relationship, and drives the team.
This role is perfect for a Senior Facilities Manager currently on a premium CBD commercial or institutional-grade asset who is ready to step into full precinct ownership, or a precinct lead ready to take the next step in their career.
In this role, you will:
- Lead, develop and hold accountable a team of three direct reports, setting the standard for service delivery, culture and performance across the precinct
- Own the client relationship with Charter Hall, translating day-to-day operations into clear, confident reporting and building a trusted long-term partnership
- Oversee the full facilities management (FM) regime across two premium A-grade towers including essential services compliance, contractor management, and planned and reactive maintenance
- Manage budgets, contracts, capital works and lifecycle planning across the precinct
- Drive active project management activity including the repositioning of one of the towers, a genuine career development opportunity for the right candidate
