S2. Ep18. Talking with Charles Hammersla about managing large portfolio’s of properties, and all things Facilities Management

In this podcast episode, we talk with Charles Hammersla, who heads up the Facilities Management team at Cushman & Wakefield, overseeing in excess of 600 properties across Australia, on behalf of the National Australia Bank (NAB).

Charles is the Facilities Management Association (FMA), Facilities Manager of the year for 2021! So who better to speak with about Facilities Management?!?

We covered a wide variety of topics, from how he got into FM, the role of a Facilities Manager, developing the process that delivers defects-free projects, the variety of works required of an FM…..and much more, including:

  • His background in Law and stepping into building compliance, then FM
  • The broad nature of the FM industry
  • Work space and work spaces of the future
  • Successfully managing a portfolio with around 650 properties
  • Capturing building data to better manage a Property Asset.

If you have an interest in the built environment, managing property, and a better understanding of how we can deliver projects and manage buildings and the services within those buildings, then have a listen.
