About The Role
As an Infrastructure Advisor, you'll be the key infrastructure partner for a portfolio of schools. No two days are the same; each decision you make directly supports student wellbeing, learning outcomes and school communities.

* Maintenance, refurbishment and capital works.
* Asbestos management and compliance.
* Storm and disaster recovery.

You'll also collaborate with project managers, architects and contractors to deliver practical, sustainable solutions.
