About the role

You'll be responsible for leading facilities operations across our NSW portfolio while also helping build the systems, processes and standards that support our national growth. You'll have the opportunity to improve compliance, streamline maintenance operations, enhance contractor performance and implement scalable ways of working that will support new locations as we continue to expand.

If you enjoy solving problems, creating structure, improving systems and making a visible impact on a growing business, we'd love to hear from you.

• Strengthening facilities compliance, documentation and operational governance.
• Owning maintenance workflows, ticket triage and facilities administration.
• Developing preventative maintenance programs, asset registers and reporting.

• Supporting new site openings, defect management and operational readiness.
• Partnering closely with Community, Operations and Development teams to deliver an exceptional member experience.
• Contributing to the ongoing evolution of The Commons' facilities function as the business grows.

You'll bring

• Experience managing facilities across multiple commercial, hospitality, retail or coworking sites.
