Position Overview

Facilities Services Manager – Wellington Campus

Massey University operates a significant Estates portfolio across three campuses. The portfolio is diverse in its age and condition with over 500 buildings and a value in excess of $1.5B. Each campus has its own identity and character and is supported by a local Facilities Services Team under the umbrella of the National Facilities Directors Office (NFDO). Facilities Management delivers and maintains the physical environment in which learning, teaching and research success is achieved.

Due to an impending retirement, we are looking to appoint an experienced and enthusiastic facilities management professional to lead our established and high performing Facilities Services team in Wellington. You will use your experience and knowledge of people, facilities management, energy management and building management systems to lead the team in delivering high quality, fully compliant, FM outcomes and services to meet the needs of our staff and student stakeholders.

You will also participate and contribute to the future direction of FM at Massey and support broader University and NFDO initiatives. For example, you will work closely with colleagues across the University to contribute to the reduction of energy consumption and carbon emissions, in support of the University’s commitment to being Net Zero Carbon by 2030.

Your background and personal attributes should include the following:

  • You are an experienced FM practitioner with a related qualification in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, facilities management, or building services.
  • You will have excellent problem-solving skills and be methodical in reporting on progress against a variety of targets.
  • You will be comfortable with people and be able to build rapport and trust quickly.
  • Excellent oral and written skills are essential to communicate with a wide range of stakeholders.
  • An organised, detailed and thorough approach to routine tasks and project management.
  • Ability to produce quality work at a high level both as an individual and as part of a team.
  • Advanced level of computer skills and capable of learning new applications.
  • A willingness to learn to develop new skills and knowledge.

If you want to grow your career and become part of our team, we would love to hear from you!
