Job Description
Building Manager - Tweed Heads / Southern Gold Coast
Part-time | Opportunity to grow
About the Company
Our client is a well-established and growing property maintenance business servicing residential and commercial strata buildings, holiday lets, and private residences across the Tweed and Southern Gold Coast regions. They provide a full suite of services including cleaning, gardening, caretaking, handyman support, and pool maintenance, with a strong focus on transparency, reliability, and high-quality service.
Due to continued growth, they are now seeking a hands-on, capable Building Manager / Caretaking Coordinator to take ownership of several sites and act as the key on-ground contact.

Initially, the role will be a minimum of 10 hours per week across two days, with strong potential to increase hours and responsibility over time. Shifts are ideally 6:00 am to 1:00 pm, with some flexibility. Some duties may be performed remotely, and limited on-call availability may be required in the afternoons.
