Headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina, Greystar manages and operates over $350 billion of real estate in more than 260 markets globally with offices throughout North America, Europe, South America, and the Asia-Pacific region.

Why Work for Greystar?

We don't just manage buildings, we build communities. At Greystar, our onsite teams shape exceptional living experiences from day one. If you love hands-on facilities work with real ownership and variety, this is your next move.

About the Site

Haiku The Yarra and Haiku The Claremont are two of Greystar's flagship Build-to-Rent communities in South Yarra — quality, resident-focused assets sitting side by side. One base, zero travel between sites.

About the Role

This is a hands-on, full-time permanent role where you will take full ownership of maintenance, compliance, and presentation, while building and leading your own team along the way.

Enjoy stable Monday–Friday hours with no weekend work. On-call is part of the role, but call-outs are minimal and most issues are handled during business hours.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead, coach, and grow a maintenance team across both sites
  • Own reactive, planned, and statutory maintenance end-to-end
  • Manage work orders end-to-end; diagnosing, repairing, and closing out defects on time and on budget
  • Deliver preventative maintenance and statutory testing (fire alarms, HVAC, emergency lighting)
  • Oversee the make-ready process for vacant apartments — inspections, contractor scheduling, quality checks
  • Manage CapEx projects and budgets with real autonomy
  • Champion WHS and safety standards across two premium communities

About You

You've led facilities or maintenance operations in residential, student accommodation, or hospitality settings, and you're just as comfortable with compliance paperwork as you are getting hands-on.

To Be Successful, You'll Bring

  • Proven facilities/maintenance leadership experience
  • Strong WHS, statutory compliance, and CapEx/budget management skills
  • Trade qualifications (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) highly regarded but not essential
  • Strong communication and customer service skills with genuine care for the resident experience
  • A valid driver's licence and ability to obtain a National Criminal History Check and Working with Children Check

Diversity and Inclusion

Greystar is an equal opportunity employer committed to providing a working environment that embraces and values diversity and inclusion. By coming to work for us, you'll be part of an organisation that encourages diversity, supports charities and environmental initiatives.

We encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and people of all backgrounds to apply. If you have any support or access requirements, we encourage you to advise us at time of application. Your personal information will be kept confidential in compliance with relevant privacy legislation.

Greystar does not conduct any interviews via text or messaging, and all communication will come from official Greystar email addresses (@greystar.com). If you receive suspicious requests, please report them immediately to AskHR@greystar.com.
