Our critical assets relate to the power, cooling and fire systems that rely on 100% uptime and reliability to our customers.
Our team manage reactive and proactive maintenance requests, which requires monitoring and responding to alerts and alarms 24/7. This role is largely off the tools, with a focus on coordination, facilitiation and oversight of maintenance, relying on strong vendor and contract relationship management to complete the works.
