You will execute building repairs, furniture and space changes, painting and making-good works, as well as first-line operational tickets across offices, halls and common areas. Together with the Facility Management team, working closely with the Workplace Coordinator and reporting to the Maintenance Supervisor, you will be the on-site craftsperson for the building. This role is ideal for someone who is practical, service-oriented and comfortable juggling many small jobs in a fast-paced engineering environment.

What You’ll Do

• Several years of hands-on experience in building maintenance, facility operations, or a similar multi-skill role
• Ability to carry out minor repairs independently (including doors, furniture, painting, and fittings) and to judge when a specialist trade must take over
• Forklift/industrial truck licence (FFZ) is a plus; willingness to obtain site-required certificates
• Experience with ticket systems or CMMS and MS Office (Outlook, Excel)
• Fluent German and good English
