Job Overview

Why join us?
We’re a global tech company,  just not the kind you’re picturing.
Sure, we’ve got catered lunches, team events, cool merch, and yes... dogs in the office. But that’s not why people join.

Our team of nearly a thousand people wakes up every day to make our product and our customers’ lives better. At SafetyCulture, you’ll hear “yes, let’s give it a shot” more often than “that’s not how we do things here.”

People join because we’re building tools that make work better for the 3 billion people who keep the world moving - factory floor operators, baggage handlers, truck drivers, servers, store assistants. The ones who make things happen. We’ve got the scale and innovation you’d expect from big tech. The difference? No endless layers of sign-off. No corporate theatre. Just smart, experienced people solving real problems fast .

The scale is big. But the ownership’s personal. Every full-time team member gets equity - real skin in the game. When we grow, you do too. We’re not perfect, no company is. But this next chapter of our growth is about scaling with intelligence, not just size - fueled by operational maturity, a clear vision, and a strong focus on AI. 

This is big tech impact, without the big tech ick. If that excites you more than it scares you, you’ll fit right in.

We are looking for an experienced and proactive Facilities Manager to oversee the day-to-day operations and maintenance of our head office in Surry Hills, Sydney. Reporting to the Director, Workplace Experience & Community you will ensure our workplace is safe, functional, efficient, and a great place to work. You believe in designing and maintaining a seamless workspace that delights, welcomes and excites our employees. This is a hands-on role that requires strong organisational skills, a practical mindset, and the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.

You'll become an internal champion of our product, SafetyCulture, using it to run the operation. You’ll also mentor and support our Workplace Concierge who reports directly into this role.
