Technical FM leadership across significant NLA, complex plant, and a dense contractor ecosystem

Lead a team of 3 direct reports across a high-profile Melbourne CBD precinct

Project management exposure including development projects and tower repositioning

Work on one of CBRE's most prestigious client accounts in the country

Based in the heart of Melbourne CBD, on the lands of the Wurundjeri people

Step into a Precinct Manager role where the technical complexity matches the prestige. This is a Senior Facilities Manager position with full precinct accountability, overseeing two premium A-grade commercial towers with retail component for Charter Hall in Melbourne CBD.

You will be responsible for the full facilities management regime across significant NLA, including BMS, critical plant, HVAC and chiller systems, lift infrastructure, fire booster and essential services, and a high-volume contractor network delivering planned and reactive maintenance to an exacting standard.

This is not a role for someone who delegates the technical detail. You will know your plant rooms, own your essential services compliance calendar, and bring genuine rigour to your AS 1851 inspection cycles, NABERS obligations, and WHS framework. Alongside that operational depth, you will also drive project management activity across live development projects and the repositioning of one of the towers. Perfect for a senior commercial FM professional who has grown up in premium towers and is ready to lead at precinct level.

In this role, you will:

Own budgets, contracts, capital works, and lifecycle planning across the precinct
