Facilities Manager

This is an opportunity to lead workplace services at a prominent corporate site in Aarhus, making a visible, day-to-day difference to the people who use it. As Facilities Manager, you will own the end-to-end delivery of a high-quality facilities operation — managing vendor partners, driving service excellence, and acting as the trusted point of contact for the client and all site occupants.
