**PROPERTY SERVICES DIVISION**
**FACILITIES (CAMPUS)**

**_Mō te tīma / About our Team_**

When staff, students, and the public step onto our campuses, they experience a range of learning and research environments, including classrooms, world leading laboratories and libraries. They admire the historic Clocktower Building, enjoy our extensive art collection, stroll the grounds, and buy refreshments.

The dedicated efforts of Property Services Division employees shape these experiences. We're the physical foundation of the teaching, research, learning and social interaction that takes place at the University, and we're proud of the important role we play.

The Division is responsible for buildings with a replacement cost of NZ$2.5 billion, and more than 22,000 hectares of land. With over 3,500 University Staff and 20,000 students, it's a bit like helping to run a small town.

- Ensure staff are deployed astutely to provide optimal delivery of services. Balance the workload between support, operational and project-related activities.
- Champion the Project Assessment process to identify potential projects for inclusion in our Project Pipeline and act as Project Owner to ensure their successful delivery.
- Identify and deliver innovative and future focused facilities management solutions and services which are aligned with strategy, and continually improve the commercial performance of client portfolios.

Good attention to detail coupled with a strong client-focused, service excellence mindset is critical to success in this role.
