Our Wollongong team was founded in 2006 and continues to be a local market leader. We are a tight-knit group of property professionals who deliver great outcomes for our clients whilst maintaining a supportive and down-to-earth team culture.

We are seeking an experienced, hands-on Facilities Manager to join our growing property management team in Wollongong. This is a newly created role supporting the Commercial, Residential and Strata teams across a substantial and diverse portfolio.

This role is perfect for a self-motivated facilities or building management professional who thrives in the field, loves variety, and wants to be part of a collaborative team. Working day-to-day across our portfolio, you will be the critical link between our clients, tenants, and trade contractors — making sure properties are maintained to the highest standard and capital works projects are delivered on time and on budget.

You Will Be Accountable For

Conducting regular property inspections and assessing repair and maintenance needs across commercial and residential assets.
Coordinating, supervising and quality-checking all routine and reactive maintenance works.
Sourcing, engaging and managing trade contractors and service providers, ensuring compliance with WHS obligations and Colliers procurement guidelines.
Preparing and administering service contracts, maintenance agreements, and works orders.
Managing tenant fitout applications and coordinating fitout works from inception through to practical completion.
Overseeing building alteration and capital works projects, including scoping, quoting, program management, and cost reporting.
Contributing to long-term asset management planning, capital expenditure forecasting, and building compliance programs.
Assisting the Commercial Property Manager with broader property management duties as required.

About You

To succeed in this role, you will have:
A hands-on, solutions-focused approach with the ability to manage competing priorities and get things done.
Strong organisational skills and genuine attention to detail.
A collaborative mindset with a commitment to delivering excellent outcomes for clients and tenants.
Confident communication skills — you’re equally comfortable talking with trades on site and presenting recommendations to a property owner.
A proactive approach to identifying and resolving issues before they escalate.
High personal integrity and accountability.
A valid NSW driver’s licence

Qualifications & Experience

To excel in this role, you will ideally:

Have demonstrated experience in facilities management, building management, or a related trade/property discipline.
Possess a sound working knowledge of building maintenance, trade disciplines, and relevant legislation including WHS and fire safety requirements.
Have experience engaging and supervising contractors and managing service agreements.
Hold (or be willing to obtain) a NSW Real Estate Certificate of Registration.
Have experience with commercial property or mixed-use portfolios — though candidates from building management, construction, or trade backgrounds with strong coordination skills are equally encouraged to apply.
Be proficient in Microsoft Office; experience with real estate property management software is advantageous.
