We are looking for an enthusiastic individual who combine knowledge and experience of engineering and building operations across a range of asset types, with the commercial awareness to build a profitable, high performing business and the people leadership skills to create a unified team culture across the portfolio.

Further skills and experience you will bring to the role include:

• Facilities, Engineering or Building Management role, in a commercial environment.
• Strong time management skills, including the ability to handle multiple tasks and prioritise.
• Experience using computer based building maintenance and management systems.
• Ability to build trusted relationships with all stakeholders.

We foster an environment in which everyone at Colliers feels respected and comfortable bringing their authentic selves to do their best work. It’s our people who set us apart and we actively recruit people who represent the diversity of the communities in which we operate. We take great pride in doing what’s right and operating in ways that benefit the business, our people, our clients, our communities, and the environment.

Experts join experts, and we welcome you to join us as we lead the industry into the future.
