An effective recruitment brief reflects the buildings and operational requirements behind the vacancy
We discuss the property type, occupancy, service arrangements and condition of the assets involved. We also clarify whether the appointment covers one location, a campus or several properties.
Depending on the position, responsibilities may include:
This helps distinguish a coordination role from an appointment with wider responsibility for people, budgets and operational performance.
In-House Facilities Management
For organisations recruiting into their own facilities team, we clarify how the role supports the wider business. The brief may involve coordinating external providers, managing internal requests, planning maintenance and reporting to property or operational leadership. We establish the level of autonomy, budget responsibility and stakeholder contact involved.
Facilities Management Service Providers
For outsourced FM contracts, we discuss the client requirements, service scope and reporting arrangements. We clarify responsibilities for managing teams, coordinating subcontractors, monitoring performance and maintaining client relationships. Where an appointment supports a new contract, we also establish the mobilisation priorities and resources available.
Hard Services Management
Hard services appointments may oversee planned maintenance, reactive repairs and the contractors responsible for building systems. We establish the technical knowledge required and whether the role involves direct engineering responsibility or management of specialist providers. For hands-on technical vacancies, explore our HVAC recruitment support in Brisbane.
Soft Services Management
Soft services appointments may cover cleaning, security, reception and other workplace services. We discuss staffing arrangements, service schedules, contractor responsibilities and the standards expected by the client or organisation. For positions covering both hard and soft services, we clarify the balance of responsibilities and the support available.
Single-Site Roles
A facilities manager based at one property may need detailed knowledge of the building, its occupants and its operating requirements. We discuss site presence, access arrangements, maintenance windows and responsibilities for responding to operational issues.
Portfolio Roles
Portfolio appointments require clarity about the number of properties, their locations and how services are coordinated. We establish travel expectations, local team support and responsibilities for maintaining consistent standards across sites. If a Brisbane-based role includes properties elsewhere in South East Queensland, the brief should identify those locations and the frequency of travel.
Facilities coordinators support the organisation and follow-through of day-to-day building services.
Responsibilities may include logging requests, arranging contractor attendance, updating maintenance records and keeping stakeholders informed.
We clarify the systems used, workload, reporting structure and level of responsibility for prioritising requests.
This helps employers recruit for the actual scope of the position and gives candidates a clearer understanding of the opportunity.
