Looking to grow your career in Facilities Management and gain exposure across a large retail environment? This could be the opportunity for you.
We’re looking for a motivated and organised Facilities Coordinator to join our Facilities & Maintenance team on a fixed-term contract for an initial 6 months, with the potential to extend to 12 months.
This role is ideal for someone who is hungry to learn, enjoys variety, and wants hands-on exposure to facilities operations, maintenance coordination, compliance, and commercial property management within a fast-paced retail business.
As a Facilities Coordinator, you’ll be given your own portfolio of stores to support, helping ensure our sites remain compliant, safe, customer-ready, and operating efficiently day-to-day.
No two days are the same. You’ll work closely with contractors and internal stakeholders to coordinate maintenance and repairs across a broad range of facilities matters including:
Building Warrant of Fitness (BWOF) compliance
Air conditioning and lighting maintenance
General repairs and reactive maintenance
Plumbing, electrical, roofing and building issues
Store maintenance coordination
Contractor management and scheduling
Supporting commercial lease and facilities processes
This role offers a great balance between office and field-based work, with exposure to both operational coordination and on-the-ground facilities activity. You’ll also gain valuable insight into commercial leases and broader facilities management processes.
Reporting into a supportive leader who values autonomy and trust, you’ll be empowered to take ownership while being backed by an experienced team.
What you’ll be doing
Managing maintenance requests across a portfolio of stores
Coordinating contractors and internal field technicians
Prioritising work and ensuring jobs are completed on time
Building strong relationships with store teams and stakeholders
Raising purchase orders, quotes and invoices
Supporting compliance and preventative maintenance activity
Assisting with facilities-related projects and improvements
We’re open to people from a variety of backgrounds. Previous facilities experience is beneficial, but not essential. You may come from retail, coordination, administration, project support or a trade-related environment and be looking for an opportunity to grow your career in facilities management.
What’s most important is your attitude.
You’ll bring:
Strong organisation and multitasking skills
Excellent communication and stakeholder management
A proactive, can-do approach
The ability to work at pace and manage competing priorities
Confidence working with both contractors and internal teams
A willingness to learn and take ownership
If you’re someone who enjoys variety, thrives in a fast-moving environment, and wants genuine exposure to facilities management in a supportive team, we’d love to hear from you.
We offer a dynamic, flexible and supportive team environment working with like-minded people within a business that cares about and recognises individuals.
We also offer a range of benefits that work for you, your lifestyle and your career which include flexible working arrangements, team member discounts, wellbeing support, leave benefits and more!
