About the role
The Senior Executive, Facilities & Operations is the dedicated owner of Cimelia's facilities function — responsible for the upkeep, vendor management, and operational readiness of the company's premises. The role leads the Facilities team and takes primary accountability for all site-related matters. In addition, the role provides operational support to the Manager, Operations, particularly in the execution of government and military (MINDEF) projects where on-the-ground coordination and site familiarity are key.
Key responsibilities
- Take ownership of Cimelia's facilities— ensuring the premises are maintained in a clean, safe, and operationally ready condition at all times.
- Plan, schedule, and oversee all maintenance, repair, and improvement works, including the ongoing renovation and upgrade projects, coordinating with contractors and internal stakeholders to meet timelines and quality standards.
- Conduct regular facility walkthroughs and inspections to identify maintenance needs, housekeeping gaps, and defects; ensure corrective actions are followed through promptly.
- Ensure all equipment, tools, and machinery across the site are properly stored, labelled, and accounted for — and that storage areas are organised, accessible, and compliant with company housekeeping standards.
- Manage the issuance, return, and condition-tracking of operational tools and equipment; raise procurement requests for damaged, missing, or insufficient stock.
- Manage material procurement for maintenance and improvement works, including sourcing, purchasing and collecting materials or supplies as required, while coordinating with vendors to ensure timely delivery and cost effectiveness.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for all facilities-related vendors and contractors — engaging, onboarding, and managing service providers for maintenance, equipment servicing, renovation, and improvement works.
- Conduct safety induction briefings for contractors and oversee on-site works, ensuring activities are carried out safely, within the agreed scope and schedule, and to the required quality standards.
- Lead and supervise the Facilities team directly — Supervisor, Facilities and Specialist, Facilities — providing day-to-day direction, task prioritisation, and performance oversight.
- Ensure all facilities activities comply with applicable regulations and company safe work procedures; identify risks and ensure corrective actions are taken promptly.
