3What this role really is

This job involves keeping the technology in buildings running, so systems stay updated and data flows properly. You make sure smart building tech works day to day and support the team behind it.

4What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Outlook) Intermediate

Creating simple spreadsheets for tracking, drafting emails, and managing your calendar.

IWMS/CAFM (e.g., Planon, Archibus) Basic

Entering data, processing work orders, running pre-built reports, and managing space requests.

CMMS & EAM (e.g., Fiix, UpKeep) Basic

Logging maintenance requests, closing out preventative maintenance (PM) work orders, attaching documentation.

BI & Data Visualisation (e.g., Power BI, Tableau) Basic

Using pre-built dashboards to answer specific questions, exporting data to Excel for simple analysis.

5What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing in Where you are nowThe step above
System Configuration Changes No authority; must escalate all requests to Integrated Technology Specialist. Routine changes within defined parameters (e.g., user permissions for non-admin roles) with manager review. Escalate complex changes. Technical decisions within project scope (e.g., configuring new modules, minor integration tweaks) after consultation with relevant stakeholders.
Troubleshooting & Problem Resolution Resolve Tier 1 user issues (e.g., password resets, basic 'how-to'). Escalate anything beyond documented procedures. Diagnose and resolve common system errors and integration issues independently. Escalate novel or critical system failures. Lead troubleshooting for complex, multi-system issues. Decide on root cause analysis methods and implement solutions, consulting on major system downtime.
Data Management & Reporting Perform data entry and generate pre-built reports following instructions. Report data inconsistencies. Design and build custom reports and dashboards for specific departmental needs. Make recommendations on data quality improvements. Define data governance standards for specific platforms, design complex data models, and make recommendations on data strategy to leadership.
Vendor Interaction No direct vendor interaction beyond basic support ticket submission under supervision. Liaise with vendors for technical support, feature requests, and minor bug fixes. Manage vendor relationships for specific platforms, evaluate new features, and negotiate service level agreements (SLAs).

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Work Order Data Accuracy
The percentage of work orders you process or update that have all required fields correctly filled and no obvious errors.
Target · 98% accuracy

Out of 100 work orders entered, only 2 had missing asset tags or incorrect priority levels.

Tier 1 Support Ticket Resolution Time
How quickly you resolve basic user issues, like password resets or 'how-to' questions, before escalating.
Target · 90% resolved within 4 hours

A property manager couldn't find a report; you walked them through it in 15 minutes, closing the ticket yourself.

Scheduled Report Generation Timeliness
Ensuring routine reports (e.g., weekly occupancy data, monthly energy consumption) are pulled and distributed on time.
Target · 100% on-time delivery

The weekly space utilisation report was sent to the Property Director by 9 AM every Monday morning.

Asset Data Completeness
The percentage of new assets added to the CMMS that have all mandatory fields (e.g., serial number, installation date, warranty info) populated.
Target · 95% completeness

When 50 new HVAC units were installed, 48 had all their details correctly logged in the system.

System User Support & Guidance
How effectively you help less tech-savvy colleagues use our systems, making them feel supported rather than frustrated.
  • Positive feedback from facilities staff (e.g., 'John always helps me out with the app'), fewer repeat questions on basic tasks, your supervisor noticing you patiently explaining things.
Learning & Application of New Knowledge
Your eagerness to pick up new system features or troubleshooting steps, and then actually applying them to your daily work.
  • Proactively asking questions, taking notes during training, successfully completing new tasks after being shown once or twice, suggesting small improvements based on your learning.
Documentation Contribution
How well you follow and contribute to internal guides and 'how-to' articles for system users.
  • Your documentation updates are clear and easy to follow, you flag outdated information, and you create new entries for common issues you resolve.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Making Things Work Smoothly

You get satisfaction from seeing a system correctly updated, a report run without errors, or a colleague successfully using a tool you've helped them with.

Successfully setting up a new user in the IWMS, knowing they can now log their maintenance requests without a hitch.

Learning New Technology

You enjoy diving into new software, understanding how different modules connect, and figuring out how to get the most out of a system.

Spending an extra hour after a training session to explore advanced features of the CMMS, just because you're interested.

Supporting a Team

You like being the person others can come to for help with tech issues, and you enjoy helping your colleagues be more effective.

Helping a facilities engineer troubleshoot their tablet app so they can close out their work orders on site.

What frustrates people
  • Dealing with systems that are slow or crash unexpectedly, especially when you're on a deadline.
  • Explaining the same basic tech issue multiple times to different people.
  • Finding errors in data that someone else entered, and having to clean it up.
  • The 'urgent' request that turns out to be not so urgent after all, or gets deprioritised without explanation.
What this role does not give you
  • High-level strategic decision-making – that comes later, once you understand the foundations.
  • A quiet, predictable environment where everything works perfectly – expect some troubleshooting and unexpected issues.
  • Immediate, visible impact on major projects – your impact is more about consistent, reliable support.

8Who you work with

Your work directly supports the operational efficiency of our entire property portfolio. Accurate data entry and timely system support mean our facilities teams can respond quicker to issues, plan maintenance better, and ultimately, keep our buildings comfortable and functional. Get it wrong, and you're looking at frustrated tenants and higher operational costs.

Inside the business
  • Facilities Operations Team
  • Property Managers
  • Energy & Sustainability Team
  • IT Helpdesk
Outside the business
  • Software Vendors (for basic support queries)
  • Building Occupants (indirectly, via support tickets)

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • A genuine interest in technology and how it applies to physical spaces.
  • Basic computer literacy beyond just browsing the internet (e.g., file management, software installation).
  • Ability to follow detailed instructions and processes without deviation.
  • Strong organisational skills to manage multiple tasks and deadlines.

10What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Intermediate IWMS/CMMS Configuration

Once you understand how the systems are used, the next step is to understand how they're built. Being able to tweak settings or add new fields will make you much more self-sufficient.

User Roles & Permissions · Custom Fields & Forms · Workflow Automation Basics

  • This week: Ask your supervisor to show you the backend configuration settings for one module.
  • This month: Shadow a more senior colleague when they're making a system configuration change.
  • Month 2: Work through a vendor's online training module on basic system administration.
  • Month 3: Propose a small configuration change (e.g., adding a new field) with a clear justification.

Quick win: Familiarise yourself with the system's 'admin' or 'settings' menus, even if you don't have access yet. Understand what's there.

IoT Sensor Familiarity

More and more buildings are getting 'smarter' with sensors for everything from occupancy to air quality. You'll need to understand what these devices are and how they feed data into our systems.

Common Sensor Types · Basic Sensor Data · Device Commissioning (Conceptual)

  • This week: Identify 3 different types of sensors in one of our buildings and what data they collect.
  • This month: Read an introductory article or watch a video on 'smart building sensors'.
  • Month 2: Ask a facilities engineer about the most common issues they see with sensors.
  • Month 3: Document the data flow from one specific sensor into one of our dashboards.

Quick win: Pay attention to the sensor data on dashboards you already use; try to correlate it with real-world events (e.g., 'occupancy spiked when that meeting started').

11Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Completing online courses in Excel or data management fundamentals (e.g., via LinkedIn Learning, Coursera).
  • Attending internal training sessions on our specific IWMS, CMMS, or BMS platforms.
  • Shadowing experienced facilities engineers or property managers to understand their day-to-day challenges and how technology helps.
  • Reading industry blogs or publications about PropTech and smart buildings to keep up with trends.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, some parts of this job are a bit repetitive. But what if you could offload some of that grunt work to an AI assistant? We're embracing AI to make our roles more efficient, giving you more time to learn, troubleshoot, and actually make an impact.

Even at an entry level, AI can be a game-changer. Think about all the data entry, report summaries, and basic troubleshooting guides you'll be dealing with. AI tools can help you get through these tasks faster and with fewer errors, letting you focus on understanding the 'why' behind the 'what'.

Automated Documentation Drafting

Instead of writing user guides from scratch, feed an AI assistant your notes or a recording of a process. It can draft clear, concise instructions for common system tasks, saving you hours. You'll just need to review and refine it.

Smart Troubleshooting Assistant

When a user reports a common issue, use an AI to quickly search our knowledge base and vendor manuals. It can suggest diagnostic steps or solutions, helping you resolve Tier 1 tickets faster or formulate better escalation questions.

Report Summary Generator

After pulling a standard report (e.g., monthly energy usage), use AI to summarise the key trends and highlight anomalies in a concise paragraph. This helps you quickly grasp the important points before sharing with your supervisor.

Data Validation & Cleaning Prompts

Got a messy spreadsheet of asset data? Use AI prompts to identify common errors, suggest formatting corrections, or flag missing information. It won't do the whole job, but it'll give you a massive head start on cleaning up data.
