Property & Facilities Manager

Stuff is New Zealand's largest digital media company, and behind every masthead, newsroom and sales floor sits a portfolio of buildings that need to work as hard as our people do. We're looking for a Property & Facilities Manager on a 12 month fixed term contract for maternity cover to take ownership of that portfolio: negotiating leases, driving down occupancy costs, keeping our sites safe and compliant, and using modern property technology to make smarter, faster decisions.

This is a role for someone who enjoys the mix of commercial negotiation, hands-on facilities management and genuine influence at the leadership table. You'll advise our CPO directly, manage outsourced partners and contractors, and be the person business units turn to when they need expert, practical advice on their space.

Responsabilidades

• A property or facilities qualification (Bachelor of Property, Master of Corporate Real Estate, Commercial Property Asset Management, or similar)
• 5 to 10 years' experience managing corporate property portfolios and negotiating commercial leases
• Membership of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (or equivalent) and FMANZ
• Solid financial management experience, including budget setting and reporting
• Confidence with smart building technology and AI enabled analytics, and a genuine interest in what new tools can do for the portfolio
• Strong negotiation, communication and stakeholder management skills, with the judgement to balance day-to-day fixes against long-term strategy
• A track record of managing complex projects alongside architects, engineers, IT, security and facilities teams

Requisitos

You'll lead lease negotiations and space sourcing, using market benchmarking and AI assisted contract review tools to sharpen your position and catch risk early. You'll keep a strategic critical date diary so nothing sneaks up on us, and you'll manage the full lifecycle of new leases, subleases and terminations with the rigour and transparency the business expects.

From site inspections and safety audits to preventative maintenance plans, you'll make sure our buildings meet their obligations and ours. You'll bring in condition monitoring and predictive maintenance tools where they add value, and manage the everyday services (cleaning, security, waste, testing and tagging) that keep sites running smoothly.

You'll run the procurement plan, hold contractors to account with proper performance scorecards, and manage property budgets with a close eye on cost, using forecasting and anomaly detection to flag anything unusual before it becomes a problem.

You'll lead space planning and real estate projects from concept to turnkey delivery, and you'll be the one keeping an eye on emerging proptech, bringing forward a business case wherever there's a genuine return.

Beneficios

You'll be joining a business that shapes how New Zealanders get their news, connect with their communities and do business online. This role sits close to the CPO and has real scope to modernise how we manage property, so your ideas and your judgement will genuinely shape outcomes, not just support them.

If you're ready to bring commercial sharpness and hands-on facilities expertise to a portfolio that matters, we'd like to hear from you.
