You will work closely with the FM team to help keep all aspects of fire systems inspected, tested, certified, and maintained in accordance with AS 1851 and related Australian Standards. Your focus will be on directing schedules, maintaining accurate records, supporting audits, and following up on compliance requirements, with occasional inspections within the scope of your qualifications and accreditation.
