About your new role

Responsible for leading trade team across Tullamarine and Woodend whilst acting as the contract's engineering authority.

What is on offer?

  • Highly competitive salary + 2 days paid leave for volunteer opportunities
  • Access to unlimited learning and training programs
  • Clear career progression to wider Facilities Management or Corporate real estate depending on preference and skill set
  • Certified Family inclusive workplace & paid parental leave
  • Competitive leave offered

Key responsibilities

  • Manage trade staff, finalise and approve schedules, assign PPMs, and lead daily pre-start meetings that set priorities, risks and expectations for the shift.
  • Verify licences, training, permits and isolations are in place before work begins, rather than relying on after-the-fact checks.
  • Apply multidisciplinary engineering judgement across mechanical, electrical, fire, water and utilities systems, so faults and risks are understood in terms of how they interact between trades.
  • Own the compliance register, interpret applicable standards, and reconcile the dual Comcare and Victorian OHS jurisdiction into one practical compliance outcome.
  • Ensure recurring or significant faults are resolved at root cause rather than repeatedly patched.
  • Technically test repair quotes, scopes and maintenance frequencies before approval, so CSL pays for the right fix at the right price.
  • Own specialist subcontractor relationships, inspect and supervise their work, and scrutinise programmes, reports, certifications and SWMS.
  • Plan major works including shutdowns, define the CBRE and CSL plant boundary, and lead the asset reliability programme.
  • Maintain evidence and documentation to a standard that would withstand audit, validation or regulator scrutiny in the GMP-regulated environment.

Skills and experience we are looking for

  • Multidisciplinary engineering breadth across mechanical, electrical, fire, water and utilities, sufficient to lead diagnosis and decision-making across trades.
  • Working knowledge of GMP-regulated environments and the evidentiary standard required for audit, validation and regulator scrutiny.
  • Ability to operate under the dual Comcare and Victorian OHS jurisdiction and reconcile them into one practical compliance position.
  • Root cause diagnostic capability

You will join a high-performing, collaborative on site GWS team who are dedicated to a prestigious client account.
