Facilities Manager - Building & Manufacturing Site Infrastructure

Job title : Facilities Manager - Building & Manufacturing Site Infrastructure
Location : New South Wales
Job type : Permanent or Full Time
Job reference : 1599698
If you are someone who thrives on responsibility, takes pride in what they are looking after, and enjoys problem-solving in complex environments - this is a role where you impact will be felt every day.

This is a great opportunity to step into a purpose-built Facilities Manager role at a large-scale food manufacturing site. You'll be the go-to person for everything related to the building itself - from the building structure, amenities to the lawns and surrounding grounds.

With over 700 staff working across a 20,000 sqm site, the facility is under constant pressure - and you'll play a crucial part in keeping it safe, functional and future-ready.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Own the day to day upkeep and long-term planning for all building infrastructure (not the machinery, not the utilities) - just the physical site itself. 
  • Manage the wear and tear that comes from heavy daily cleaning in a high-care food manufacturing environment.
  • Work closely with contractors and vendors, ensuring you get competitive quotes and reliable results.
  • Be hands-on in identifying aging or failing infrastructure - then identify the lead cause and the fix.
  • Partner with the maintenance and engineering teams to deliver capital upgrades - there is significant investment coming into the site - with a lot of upgrade projects lined up.
What You'll Bring
  • Trade-qualified.
  • Strong communication skills.
  • You are resilient and proactive - you don't just wait for problems to land in your lap.
  • You're a positive attitude person who knows how to build good relationships with other people you work with - a big part of this role will require you to work with other teams and departments to identify what the root problem is as well as to fix it.
  • You've got a solid understanding of building or site maintenance, if you have experience in manufacturing or similar then this will be highly regarded.
  • You take pride in your site and treat it like your own.
Why This Role Stands Out
You will step into a 25 year old facility that's well established but undergoing major investment - you can make your mark. This is a role with a lot of autonomy where you'll lead your own area and make decisions that matter. You won't just be ticking boxes - you will be solving real problems and driving tangible, long-term improvements.
