• Work closely with specialist contractors, repairs and maintenance co-ordinator, property management and leasing teams to ensure a seamless and high-quality resident experience.
• Act as a point of escalation for any facility-related resident complaints, addressing and resolving issues with confidence and expertise
• Assist with budget management and cost control, ensuring facilities operations remain efficient and within budget.
• Support sustainability initiatives, helping to improve energy efficiency and environmental performance within the development.
• Manage and mentor on-site facilities teams, ensuring a high standard of service delivery.
• Support technical and lifecycles projects as and when required.

Experience required

• Proven experience in facilities management within the Build to Rent, PRS, or luxury residential sectors.
• Strong knowledge of building systems, maintenance best practices, and compliance regulations.
• A recognised health & safety qualification (e.g., IOSH, NEBOSH) would be highly desirable.
• Experience in contractor and supplier management, ensuring high-quality service delivery.
• Excellent organisational and problem-solving skills with a hands-on approach.
• Strong leadership and communication abilities, with the ability to liaise effectively with internal and external stakeholders.
