APAC FM Recruitment recruits administrators and contract support staff for facilities teams and FM service providers across Australia. These roles help site and contract managers keep track of work, costs and outstanding actions. The brief might focus on one building, a portfolio of sites or a new FM contract that needs its records and reporting set up before handover.
These are support roles for operational FM contracts. We clarify where responsibility sits for approving spend, agreeing changes to the contract and signing off reports, so the candidate understands what they will own and what they will prepare for others.
A completed maintenance visit can leave several things to check: whether the work order reflects what happened, whether the service report has been received and whether any follow-up work has been logged. On some contracts, the administrator may also check that an invoice matches the purchase order and flag differences for the manager to review.
We look at the records candidates have handled and how they deal with gaps. If a service report is missing, for example, do they know who to follow up with and how to record that it is still outstanding? That matters when site managers use the same information for client reviews, budget tracking or maintenance planning.
If the role mainly involves handling incoming maintenance requests, arranging technician attendance and keeping building users informed, see Facilities Helpdesk Recruitment.
An established contract may need someone who can keep monthly reporting on schedule, maintain supplier files and follow up exceptions across several sites. A mobilisation has a different starting point. Records may be coming from several sources, reporting responsibilities may still be taking shape and unresolved actions need a clear owner before go-live.
We ask employers what needs to be ready by the first milestone. That could be a reliable site list, a reconciled set of open work orders or a first reporting pack with clear gaps and owners. Knowing the outcome helps us look for someone with the right experience rather than relying on a broad job title.
Permanent recruitment suits employers who need ongoing support for a site, portfolio or account. Fixed-term and interim recruitment can suit a contract handover, records clean-up or defined period of additional reporting. If you’re building a team for a newly awarded contract, see our workforce mobilisation recruitment service.
If you’re hiring, speak with our team about the sites, systems and records the person will support.
If you’re looking for a role, submit your CV. Include examples of the documents, reports or purchase orders you handled, which teams you worked with and how you followed up when information was incomplete.
They help the contract team keep work order records, supplier documents, purchase orders and reports up to date. The exact mix depends on how administration is shared between the site team, finance and the contract manager.
The helpdesk mainly handles incoming requests and coordinates reactive work. Contract support mainly maintains the records, reporting and administration behind service delivery. Some teams combine the two.
The focus here is on ongoing facilities services, such as maintenance records, supplier documentation and monthly reporting. Construction contract administration supports the delivery of a building or project. Some skills transfer, but the work differs.
Yes. We can look for people to help organise site and supplier information, maintain action logs and prepare records and reports for handover.
Experience with work orders, purchase orders, supplier records or recurring reporting is useful. Examples from property, maintenance, field services or other operational teams can be relevant.
