About the Organisation
Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology is one of the largest pathology practices in Australia, providing comprehensive services to patients and doctors over a geographic area throughout Queensland and New South Wales and employing more than 2000 people.
Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology services the Brisbane metropolitan area and regional areas extending as far north as Cairns and south to Coffs Harbour and offers both routine testing and specialised testing for referral laboratories throughout Australia.
About the Opportunity
Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology now has a full-time opportunity for a Facility Services Coordinator to join the Essential Services Department at Bowen Hills. This is a 6-month contract position, with the opportunity of extension, required to replace the current Facility Services Coordinator who is going on parental leave.
Reporting to the Essential Services Manager, you will coordinate all aspects of property maintenance for the Main SNP Laboratory at Bowen Hills, as well as all other Brisbane laboratories and collection centres. This office-based role will entail responding to electronic and phone requests regarding building maintenance issues (including emergencies); coordinating and liaising with sub-contractors and SNP Area Managers; and conducting a number of administrative duties, with a large focus on the processing of invoices.
The ideal candidate for this role will have previous experience in and/or exposure to a facilities management environment, ideally with an understanding of building management control systems.
Strong interpersonal and customer service skills and a high level of corporate professionalism will be key to your success in this role, as you will be regularly communicating with SNP specialist teams and external stakeholders. You will be competent in the Microsoft Office suite and have the ability to work effectively in a small team.
Importantly, you will have a positive and proactive attitude, with a hands-on approach to your work and the ability to juggle multiple priorities in a demanding, fast-moving environment.
Please note, this is not a maintenance or handy-person position where you will be physically responsible for the upkeep of the laboratories. Rather, this is an office-based role and you will be coordinating this work.
