We are the talent partner for a privately owned Australian property group that develops, builds, and manages its assets for the long term.
Their portfolio spans retail, commercial, and industrial across Sydney, and the business is in an active growth phase.
Their flagship retail precinct in Western Sydney is a large, multi-format site that has gained significant industry recognition in a short period of trading and has a major expansion planned in the short to medium term.The RoleThe precinct spans multiple retail formats with a diverse tenant mix and a high public interface, and it is gaining momentum quick.
What it needs is an Facilities Manager who wants to own the whole picture.The person coming into this role owns the full FM function independently: compliance, contractor management, capital planning, financial reporting, tenant liaison, and sustainability.
You build the systems, set the standards, and are the single point of accountability for how this precinct operates.
The day-to-day operational demands of a live retail environment and the longer-term plan run in parallel.
Both things, at the same time, every day - and for the right person, that is exactly what makes it worth doing.What You'll DoWalk the precinct daily, identify issues, and resolve them without waiting to be directedOwn the compliance framework end to end: life safety, WHS, building code, council and authority requirementsManage the full contractor base, hold each to agreed KPIs, and act decisively when performance falls shortRun tenders from scope to award as contracts transition from construction-managed to owner-managedBuild and maintain preventive maintenance schedules across the precinct using a CMMSManage the facilities budget,



track OPEX monthly, and develop the forward capital works planBe the primary facilities contact for all tenants and coordinate tenancy delivery for incoming occupantsContribute to monthly board reporting across maintenance, compliance, financials, and capital planningWhat You'll BringProven FM experience with full, independent accountability for a large or complex built asset - retail or mixed-use preferredPersonal ownership of compliance in a multi-tenancy environment: life safety, WHS, building code, and authority requirements - end to end, not escalated upwardReal contractor management experience: scopes, tenders, KPIs, and the ability to make the call when someone is not deliveringSound financial capability across OPEX, capital works planning, and variance reporting for a senior audienceExperience using a CMMS to structure and report on maintenance programsClear communicator with tenants, contractors, and senior leadership - confident in writing and credible in front of a boardWho This Role Is ForYou want to own the full picture, not a slice of it.
You find it more satisfying to build something from scratch than to maintain what someone else designed, and you are energised by the idea of joining an asset that is still taking shape.This role is for you if:You want to own the outcome,



not contribute to oneYou are ready to build systems and processes rather than inherit a finished modelYou can move between a contractor performance issue, a tenant request, and a board-level report in the same day without losing composure on any of themYou want to be part of an asset that is growing and will give you more scope as it doesThis role is not for you if:You rely on central specialists to handle compliance, procurement, or capital planningYou prefer a clearly defined and stable briefYou have spent your career in a large FM team with a narrow remit and significant back-office supportYou want the role to look the same in twelve months as it does on day oneWhy You'll Love Working HereFull remit ownership from day one - compliance, contractors, capital planning, tenant relationships, and board reporting all sit with youDirect line into senior leadership in a privately owned business where decisions are made quickly and your input is heardInvolvement in a significant planned precinct expansion, with exposure to live operations and major capital delivery at the same timeA multi-format asset with real variety across building types, tenant profiles, and operational demandsA close on-site team where your contribution is noticedResearch shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other folks in minority groups tend to only apply when they check every box.
So if you think you have what it takes, but don't necessarily meet every single point above, please still get in touch.
We'd love to have a chat and see if you could be a great fit.
