    Administration & systems

    • Maintain accurate records using Word, Excel, and Outlook
    • Track maintenance, contractor, and compliance activities

    • Confidence dealing with contractors and asking the right questions
    • The ability to work independently, prioritise tasks, and follow things through
    • Solid computer skills (Word, Excel, Outlook)

    Desirable (but not essential)

    • Forklift licence
    • Working at Heights or similar site tickets
    • Previous experience reviewing SWMS / permits or coordinating contractors
    • Trade background or exposure to maintenance / workshop environments
