What about Project Management

Knowing you and what you have listed, maybe Facilities (building) management?

You can get involved with anything from building control systems, organising water, power, etc, office moves, to getting the lightbulbs changed.

Shrug.

Not a fan of Project management, but Facilities management could be worth looking into.
