You’re a pragmatic doer and go-getter. Thanks to your strong negotation skills, you get what you want with little to no concessions. You’re outcome-oriented with a sharp eye for detail. You know how to prioritize tasks and allocate time and resources effectively to get your desired outcome.

Your ability to troubleshoot and technical knowledge and understanding enable you to analyze and resolve issues in no time. In fact, as you think in solutions, you don’t really see problems. You spend your time and energy finding and acting upon solutions in a hands-on way.

Considering your effective planning and organizing skills, you enjoy working in a dynamic work environment where no two days are alike. You know the job of a Facility & Sustainability Officer is multifaceted and therefore quite challenging, but you get energized from keeping several balls in the air.

Who are we?

We’re the Fleet & Facilities team, a close-knit group of 12 enthousiastic colleagues with wide-ranging responsibilities. Our 7 receptionists are responsbile for the front desks of the offices. Under the leadership of the Fleet & Facilities Manager, two fleet specialists manage the delaware car and bike park, one colleague is prevention officer and another colleague takes care of all technical functionalities.

What will you be doing?

You provide hands-on assistance to help maintain a productive and comfortable environment and ensure smooth day-to-day operation of our organization. Specifically, you manage the upkeep, maintenance and repair of all our facilities and equipment in Belgium and Luxembourg. In doing so, you frequently coordinate with the receptionists of the different offices. In case of urgent issues or emergencies, you are first on the scene.

Negotiating contracts and managing relationships with facility services providers will be major items on your to-do list. This also includes monitoring timelines to ensure periodic maintenance. Additionally, we will entrust you with the financial aspect of facility management, such as controlling costs of materials. By all means, you ensure all assets meet the regulations and you keep technical documentation up to date.

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is in delaware’s DNA. We want to leave the world a little better than we found it. And soon, you will help decide how we try to achieve that mission. As a Facility & Sustainability Officer, you are involved in the operational execution of our CSR strategy. You will support and implement sustainability initiatives across the organization. In addition, you will also support your fleet colleagues from time to time, but fleet matters will only be a small part of your responsibilities.

Is there a match?

Let’s see. If you…

  • have a Bachelor’s degree in Facility Management or relevant work experience.
  • are technically inclined, as you will coordinate and plan minor repair works.
  • are a confident negotiator and a bold go-getter.
  • have a burning passion for sustainability. You’re motivated to make a positive impact on the world.
  • combine excellent organizational and time management skills with impeccable administrative skills. Your strong problem-solving mindset definitely comes in handy.
  • consider a dynamic job energizing. That’s mainly because you’re stress resistant and you approach things proactively.
  • speak English fluently and have a good command of Dutch or French.
  • wouldn’t mind traveling to our different offices in Belgium and Luxembourg on a regular basis.
