Overview

The FM IT Infrastructure Unit Head is accountable for managing and governing the museum’s operational technology and facility-linked infrastructure systems.

These systems directly support building performance, environmental control, life-safety systems, and technical security infrastructure.

The position ensures reliable operation, integration, lifecycle planning, and technical oversight of Building Management Systems (BMS), environmental monitoring platforms, CCTV, access control, structured cabling, and BIM systems that enable facility asset management.

This role is embedded within Facilities Management and focuses solely on infrastructure supporting physical assets, daily operations, and long-term facility performance.

  • Maintain continuous monitoring of temperature, humidity, pressure, and environmental conditions across galleries, laboratories, and collections.
  • Ensure accuracy and calibration of environmental monitoring systems.
  • Develop and implement redundancy and resilience strategies for critical building systems.

Security & Technical Infrastructure

  • Supervise technical infrastructure for CCTV and access control systems.
  • Ensure operational reliability of facility monitoring and control systems.
  • Coordinate testing and validation of life-safety integrated technical systems.

Structured Cabling & Infrastructure Backbone

  • Oversee structured cabling, fiber backbone, racks, and technical rooms for operational systems.
  • Maintain and document physical infrastructure to align with asset records.
  • Ensure operational network integrity for building systems, avoiding overlap with institutional digital services.

BIM & Digital Asset Management

  • Lead and supervise the BIM Specialist to ensure accurate, up-to-date digital asset models.
  • Maintain BIM models that reflect as-built conditions and support lifecycle asset management.
  • Integrate BIM data with maintenance planning, asset registers, and infrastructure documentation.
  • Leverage digital models for preventive maintenance, capital planning, and facility optimization.

Systems Integration & Commissioning

  • Coordinate integration among mechanical systems, digital control platforms, and monitoring systems.
  • Support commissioning, testing, and handover of operational systems during capital projects.
  • Review contractor technical submissions for facility-linked infrastructure.
  • Ensure effective system validation prior to operational acceptance.

Vendor & Contractor Management

  • Supervise contractors for BMS, environmental systems, CCTV, structured cabling, and BIM-related services.
  • Monitor compliance and performance standards for preventive maintenance.
  • Escalate infrastructure-related risks to the FM Section Head as needed.

Asset Lifecycle & Capital Planning

  • Maintain an asset register for operational technology and infrastructure systems.
  • Develop strategies for lifecycle replacement of facility-linked systems.
  • Provide technical contributions to capital expenditure planning for infrastructure and digital assets.
  • Support long-term resilience and modernization plans.

Risk Management & Compliance

  • Identify and mitigate infrastructure-related risks impacting operational continuity.
  • Ensure adherence to safety, regulatory, and environmental requirements for facility systems.
  • Support audit readiness for ISO and statutory inspections.

Documentation & Reporting

  • Maintain current system architecture and as-built documentation.
  • Ensure alignment between BIM models, physical assets, and maintenance records.
  • Prepare structured performance and risk reports for the FM Section Head.

Education

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Automation Engineering, Building Services Engineering, Information Systems Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Preferred certifications: BMS, building automation, or BIM platforms.

Experience

  • 8–12 years in building automation, operational technology, or facility infrastructure environments.
  • Proven track record managing BMS, environmental systems, CCTV infrastructure, structured cabling, and BIM systems within complex facilities.
  • Experience leading technical engineers and digital asset management personnel.
  • Experience in mission-critical environments such as museums, airports, hospitals, research facilities, or large public institutions is preferred.

Skills

  • Expert knowledge of building automation and facility infrastructure systems.
  • Strong understanding of digital asset management and BIM integration in Facilities Management.
  • Structured leadership and team management
