Run by Kiwis for Kiwis, we are one of New Zealand’s largest providers of facilities management services. Our teams support customers across the country in complex, operational environments where reliability matters and systems need to work.

We have an exciting opportunity for a full time Cleaning Supervisor to join our team on a 12 month fixed term basis to cover a period of parental leave. The role is based at our NZDF client site, located at the Devonport Naval Base on Auckland’s North Shore.
This is a “hands-on” working supervisory role where you will pitch in and help as well as coordinate the cleaning team, to ensure they adhere to safety protocols, follow established cleaning procedures and maintain clean and hygienic standards across the facilities on site.
Ideally, to be successful you will have:
• Proven experience as a cleaning supervisor or in a similar role

• Attention to detail and a commitment to maintaining cleanliness standards
• Strong problem-solving and decision-making skills
• Knowledge of health and safety regulations related to cleaning operations
• A full NZ car licence with ability to drive a manual vehicle.
A specific requirement for working on a Defence Site is that you will be required to apply for and maintain a Defence Site Clearance for the duration of your employment and will need to be a NZ Citizen or hold a Residence Class Visa.
The successful applicant will also be required to complete pre-employment checks including a pre-employment medical and drug and alcohol test.
