The Opportunity

We’re seeking a Facilities Manager to oversee maintenance and operational delivery at a secure government site in Cessnock within the Hunter region.

This role suits someone with strong facilities experience, whether you’re an established FM or a capable senior professional ready to step into a site leadership role. You’ll draw on your practical knowledge, people skills, and calm problem-solving style to ensure the site runs smoothly and safely.

• Manage reporting, budgeting, and compliance requirements in line with contractual obligations.
• Provide support and direction to a small on-site team, encouraging teamwork and professional growth.
• Look for opportunities to improve processes and create a well-organised, dependable service environment.

What You’ll Bring

• Proven experience in Facilities Management or a senior maintenance leadership role in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment.
• Strong understanding of maintenance planning, WHS compliance, and contractor management.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to stay composed and approachable in high-pressure situations.
• A practical mindset and collaborative style — someone who supports, guides, and works alongside their team.
• Full Australian working rights (required for site access).

Desirable:

• Trade, Property, or Business qualifications.
• Experience within government, justice, or high-security facilities.
• Proficiency with CMMS and maintenance reporting systems.
