Take ownership of the site you’re proud to maintain

We’re seeking a hands-on, multi-skilled Site Maintenance Officer to look after the buildings, grounds, and infrastructure across our site. This is a genuine handyman role for someone who takes pride in their work — combining trade-level skills in plumbing, carpentry, and general building maintenance to keep the property safe, functional, and presentable.

You’ll work largely autonomously, taking real ownership of the site’s condition and getting ahead of maintenance issues before they become problems. If you enjoy variety, like solving practical problems with your hands, and want a steady role with genuine work-life balance, this one’s for you.

What’s in it for you

• Immediate start available
• Monday to Friday, 8-hour shifts
• Flexible start time, negotiable to suit you
• Above-Award rates plus overtime opportunities
• Stable, long-term career with an ASX-listed industry leader
• Free, secure on-site parking
• Employee discounts on products, travel, and more
• Long-term job security
• Consistent weekly hours
• A workplace where health, safety, and wellbeing come first
• A fast-paced, team-focused environment

What you’ll be doing

No two days will look the same. Your work will span the full spectrum of building and grounds maintenance, including:

• Preparing and painting interior and exterior surfaces — walls, ceilings, doors, trims, and fascias
• Applying protective coatings, sealants, and waterproofing treatments
• Repairing plasterboard, gyprock, and rendered surfaces, including patching holes and cracks
• Installing and repairing wall fixtures, brackets, shelving, and notice boards
• Inspecting, maintaining, and repairing roof sheeting, ridge capping, and flashings
• Clearing and maintaining gutters, downpipes, and stormwater drainage
• Carrying out minor roof plumbing, including box gutter repairs and overflow management
• General plumbing maintenance — repairing and replacing taps, valves, and fixtures
• Diagnosing and repairing leaks in water supply lines and waste pipes
• Clearing blocked drains, toilets, and sewer lines
• Repairing and replacing doors, windows, frames, locks, and hardware
• Constructing, repairing, and maintaining timber structures
• Conducting building inspections and reporting on condition, defects, and recommended repairs
• Maintaining common areas, amenities, car parks, pathways, and external grounds
• Maintaining and repairing floor coverings, ceiling tiles, and internal fittings
• Basic grounds tidying — mowing, hedge trimming, and weeding
• Checking and maintaining outdoor lighting
• Conducting routine safety checks and reporting hazards
• Ensuring compliance with workplace health and safety standards
• Keeping maintenance logs and completing work order requests
• Liaising with external contractors for specialist repairs (electrical, gas, structural)
• Responding promptly to maintenance requests from staff, tenants, or residents
• Sourcing materials and managing basic stock of tools and supplies
• Prioritising and scheduling repair jobs
• Reporting larger issues to management for further action

What you’ll bring

• Previous experience in a hands-on building maintenance or facilities role
• Demonstrated competency across multiple trades — painting, plumbing, carpentry, and general repairs
• Strong practical problem-solving skills and the confidence to work autonomously
• Good written and verbal communication skills for liaising with tradespeople and management
• Trade qualification in Plumbing, Carpentry, or Building Maintenance (Certificate III or above)
• Experience with a CMMS such as Maximo (advantageous)
• Experience managing or supervising subcontractors (advantageous)
• Confined Spaces certification (advantageous)
• Asbestos Awareness training (advantageous)
