Building Manager | Melbourne CBD & Southbank

_{06th August, 2026}

Be the driving force behind a thriving residential community
At MICS, we believe great buildings are about more than bricks and mortar. They're about creating safe, well-maintained and welcoming communities where residents genuinely love to live.

We're now seeking an experienced and customer-focused Building Manager to join our team at one of our premium CBD/Southbank properties.

This is far more than a facilities management role. You'll be the trusted face of the building, balancing resident relationships, contractor management, maintenance coordination and operational oversight to ensure the property continues to perform at its best.

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

You will work closely with residents, contractors, Owners Corporation Managers and committees to ensure the building is presented to the highest standard, operates efficiently and delivers an exceptional living experience.

Key responsibilities include:

• Managing daily building operations and resident enquiries
• Coordinating planned and reactive maintenance programs
• Conducting regular inspections of common areas, plant and building services
• Monitoring essential services, lifts, HVAC, security, fire and life safety systems
• Managing contractors, inductions, site access and performance standards
• Supporting compliance requirements and maintenance reporting
• Assisting with capital works, building improvement projects and sustainability initiatives
• Monitoring access control, security systems and CCTV operations
• Managing resident communications and building portal requests
• Attending meetings and providing operational updates to key stakeholders
• Supporting site teams and driving a positive building culture and community environment

About You
We're looking for someone who takes pride in delivering exceptional service, building strong relationships and maintaining high standards across every aspect of a property.

You'll bring:

• Previous experience in Building Management, Facilities Management, Property Management or a related role
• Strong knowledge of residential building operations and maintenance practices
• Experience coordinating contractors, service providers and trades
• Outstanding customer service and stakeholder management skills
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• The ability to build rapport with residents, committees and contractors alike
• Excellent problem-solving skills and a proactive approach
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities
• Competent skills across Microsoft Office and property management systems
• Experience with access control, CCTV or security systems will be highly regarded
• Leadership or team supervision experience will be viewed favourably

What Success Looks Like
You'll thrive in this role if you enjoy:

• Being the go-to person for residents and stakeholders
• Taking ownership and finding solutions
• Creating positive resident experiences
• Maintaining high-quality residential environments
• Building strong contractor and stakeholder relationships
• Working in a role where no two days are the same
