• Extra Earning: Regular opportunities for OT and on-call allowances.

• Immediate Start: Onboard quickly into a stable, essential services environment.

The Work

As part of the Facilities Management team, you’ll ensure the precinct’s infrastructure remains at a high standard. This is varied maintenance work across a complex campus.

• Reactive and preventative carpentry maintenance across hospital buildings.

• Repairs to doors, locks, cabinetry, and general timber structures.

• Small-scale fit-outs and infrastructure upgrades to support clinical staff.

• Ensuring all work meets strict health, safety, and government building standards.
