Job Summary
Are you passionate, energetic, and detail-oriented with strong technical skills?
Our client is a top-tier investment company with over fifty years of experience in managing and curating a diverse portfolio of properties across South Africa. Their portfolio includes commercial, retail, and industrial properties, all funded solely through shareholder investments. With almost 30 buildings nationwide and a solid track record of financial stability and profitability, they're on the lookout for a dynamic Facilities Manager to join their Cape Town team.
As the Facilities Manager, you’ll be handling the facilities and maintenance for their properties in Cape Town. This role is perfect for someone who loves variety and doesn’t mind being on the move, as you’ll be traveling between sites rather than being based at just one. You’ll be managing both the technical (hard) and non-technical (soft) services to ensure everything runs smoothly. This includes coordinating regular and preventive maintenance activities, developing and managing budgets, compiling reports and liaising with external vendors and contractors. You’ll also be working closely with the Head of Facilities and Centre Management to align on strategic goals and operational needs. It’s a role that combines technical know-how with a fair bit of admin work, so we’re looking for someone who can handle both with ease.
Ideally, you’ve got 3-5 years of experience in facilities management, preferably in a retail environment. You’re technically savvy with a hands-on approach to solving problems and a meticulous eye for detail. Independence is key—you should be able to manage multiple sites without needing constant supervision. Plus, you should bring a proactive, enthusiastic attitude to everything you do.
If this sounds like the perfect role for you, we’d love to hear from you! Send us your resume now and take the next step in your facilities management career!
