Job Title: Facility Officer (Event Center & Suites)

Location: Ikeja, Lagos
Employment Type: Full-time
Reporting Line: Event Center Manager

Role Overview

• We are looking to engage an experienced Facility Officer to oversee the day-to-day operational and maintenance activities of the event centre.
• The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring the facility is maintained to the highest standards of cleanliness, safety, and functionality at all times – both during and between events.
• This role requires a proactive, hands-on professional with a proven track record in facility management within the events or hospitality sector who can independently manage technical teams, vendors, and client-facing operational requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct daily facility inspections across all event halls, restrooms, suites, and common areas, ensuring the entire facility is clean, functional, and event-ready at all times.
• Oversee the maintenance and servicing of all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems – including generators, air conditioning units, water pumping systems, and electrical installations – ensuring all defects are resolved before the next scheduled event.
• Manage and supervise cleaning, janitorial, and technical staff, assigning duty schedules and rotations for both event days and inter-event periods, including ensuring minimum restroom staffing levels throughout all events.
• Coordinate all event-related facility operations: oversee overnight set-up, maintain a physical presence during live events to manage real-time issues, and ensure prompt post-event tear-down and hall restoration.
• Manage facility-related risk and emergencies – including fire outbreaks, power failures, and water supply disruptions – implementing immediate contingency measures and communicating outcomes to management and clients.
• Liaise with clients, event coordinators, and vendors on all facility matters, ensuring clear communication on facility conditions, damages, and any associated charges before and after each event.
• Manage vendor relationships and regulatory compliance, coordinating with service providers, LAWMA (waste management), LASMA, and other relevant agencies to ensure smooth operations and adherence to environmental and local regulations.
• Maintain daily facility checklists and management reports, track facility-related expenditures, raise timely requisitions for spare parts and consumables, and leverage available technology tools to document and report on facility activities.

Qualifications & Experience

• A degree or diploma in Facility Management, Estate Management, Engineering, or a related field. A professional certification from IFMA (International Facility Management Association) or equivalent is an added advantage.
• 3 – 5 years of verifiable experience in facility or operations management within an event centre, hotel, or hospitality facility.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience managing technical teams (electrical, HVAC, plumbing, janitorial) within an events or hospitality environment.
• Practical experience handling real-time facility emergencies (fire, water, power) and developing effective solutions under pressure.
• Familiarity with Lagos regulatory agencies, including LAWMA, LASMA, and relevant local compliance requirements.
• Basic proficiency in reporting tools, including Microsoft Excel, spreadsheets, and standard communication platforms.
