JLL is hiring an assistant facility manager, technical, at a client's facility in Powai, Mumbai, to lead all engineering, technical maintenance, health-safety-environment and AMC operations there: the critical building systems and their uptime, the asset health and preventive schedules, the technical preparations for meetings and events, the statutory compliance across labour, fire, EHS, DG, lifts, food safety and environmental law, the audit-ready registers, the SOPs and emergency protocols, the business-continuity drills, the AMC vendors and contractors, the audits and incident investigations, the HSE training and the sustainability and energy initiatives, in collaboration with the facility manager, the site leadership and the client. The posting, requisition REQ535841 on JLL's Workday careers site, was published on 15 September 2026 and asks for an engineering degree, five to seven years in facilities management, engineering operations or HSE leadership, and working knowledge of digital FM tools and a CMMS. This page paraphrases it, reads the requirements, describes the site and the week and lists where a candidate relocating to Mumbai can live near Powai; it links to the posting, which is the only place to apply.

The responsibilities: manage all technical operations, maintenance and uptime for the site's systems, MEP, HVAC, fire and life safety, BMS, DG sets, lifts and water systems; review asset health, preventive maintenance schedules and system performance regularly and find improvements; plan and execute the technical preparations for meetings, conferences, client visits and special events; perform daily check-ins and inspections for technical and safety standards; ensure full compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements including labour, fire, EHS, DG, lifts, FSSAI and environmental law; keep audit-ready documentation and statutory registers and submit compliance reports on time; develop and enforce SOPs for technical operations, safety procedures and emergency response; lead business-continuity preparedness, drills and emergency coordination; coordinate and manage the AMC vendor partners, validating contract compliance and scheduling preventive and corrective work; review vendor service reports, close technical findings and hold quality; manage contractors and service providers through qualification checks, safety-plan reviews, EHS document control and performance monitoring; conduct technical, safety and risk audits, investigate incidents and drive corrective closure; provide HSE and safety training and promote a safety culture; submit compliance, audit, incident and performance reports accurately and on time; maintain operational and technical records to contract and regulation; drive sustainability, energy efficiency, technology adoption and continuous improvement; collaborate with the facility manager, site leadership, vendors and client stakeholders on priorities, procurement and budget; and implement best practices so the facility's systems perform at their best.

What JLL asks for

A bachelor's degree in mechanical, electrical, civil or a related engineering discipline; five to seven years of progressive experience in facilities management, engineering operations or HSE leadership; strong knowledge of MEP, HVAC, fire and life safety, BMS, DG sets and critical infrastructure; understanding of fire-safety, EHS and environmental compliance; AMC and vendor management with contract compliance; audit management, documentation and regulatory reporting; digital FM tools, a CMMS and technical reporting systems; problem-solving, communication and stakeholder management; team leadership across cross-functional teams and vendors; tertiary qualifications in building, facility or business management preferred; and safety, fire-safety or facility-management certifications as advantages. The fire-safety guide and the licensing guide describe the small-scale versions of the fire NOC and the lift and DG permissions this role keeps current for a campus.

The site, the shift and the hours

On site at the client's Powai facility, on the lakeside corporate belt reached from Kanjurmarg and Vikhroli on the Central Line and from Andheri East on the Western side; the posting does not state weekly hours, and an assistant technical manager is on call for the plant and present for the events the posting asks her to prepare technically. The plant's specifics, the shift engineers under the role and the on-call arrangement are the first call's questions.

Questions to ask the recruiter about this posting

The plant: chillers, DG capacity, UPS, the BMS platform, the lifts and the water systems, since the posting lists them by type only. The shift engineers under the role and whether they are JLL's or a vendor's. The AMC portfolio and what is due for renewal. The statutory calendar: the fire NOC, the lift licences, the DG and pollution consents, the FSSAI registration the posting mentions, and what is due in six months. The last audit's findings and the last incident investigation. The CMMS in use. The events the role prepares technically and their frequency. The on-call arrangement and the weekend pattern. The facility manager's expectations for the first quarter. And the range, since the posting states none; the Powai page carries the band a candidate sets it against.

Where technical facility roles sit in India's property sector

Every office park, corporate campus and managed tower in India runs on a plant room that somebody has to keep alive: chillers, air-handling units, HT and LT panels, transformers, DG sets, UPS banks, pumps, fire panels and the building-management system that watches them all. Integrated facility management firms such as JLL contract with the occupier or the landlord to operate that plant, and the technical executive or engineer is the person on the shift who walks the rounds, reads the logs, answers the BMS alarm and calls the vendor when a compressor trips. The work is shift-based and physical, and the career runs from executive to senior executive, assistant facility manager, facility manager and site lead over a decade; the licensing guide explains, from the small-operator side, why the same fire and electrical compliance a corporate site runs at scale is what a twenty-bed PG is asked for in miniature, and the maintenance calendar why the preventive schedule is the whole job.

What the posting does not say about pay, and how to read it

JLL's Workday postings for India rarely state a salary, and this page does not invent one; the posting states the qualification, the years of experience, the shift pattern and the weekly hours, and those four are the honest signals of the band. A rotational-shift executive role asking for a diploma and four to six years sits in one band and a site-lead role asking for a degree and ten years in another, and a candidate should ask the recruiter for the range at the first screening call rather than guess. The field staff guide and the first-month budget guide work what a relocation to the site's city costs in the first month, which is the number to set against any offer.
