About

LCMB is a specialist building performance consultancy advising high-profile organisations on estates strategy, facilities management transformation, net zero delivery and major capital programmes.

Our work helps universities, NHS organisations, commercial property owners and public sector clients improve how their buildings are operated, maintained and developed. We combine technical expertise with commercial insight to help clients make better decisions and deliver lasting improvements across their estates.

Role

This is an opportunity to start your consulting career working on live, high-profile projects alongside experienced consultants who will support your development from day one.

This is an opportunity to begin a career in facilities management consultancy. Working alongside our senior consultants, you will support the delivery of projects that help clients improve operational performance, reduce costs, enhance compliance and plan for the future.

From your first weeks, you will contribute to real consultancy commissions rather than simply observing. You will visit client sites, analyse information, support workshops, prepare reports and see your work inform decisions made by senior client teams.

As your experience grows, so will your responsibility. We will provide the mentoring, training and support needed to develop towards Consultant and, ultimately, Senior Consultant.

Your work will include:

• Gathering and analysing data relating to assets, compliance, performance and costs
• Producing clear reports, spreadsheets and presentations for client commissions
• Supporting facilities management reviews, transformation programmes and mobilisation projects
• Attending client meetings and workshops, preparing agendas, recording actions and following up on agreed outcomes
• Supporting procurement exercises, contract reviews and business case development
• Visiting client sites to gather evidence, understand building operations and engage with operational teams
• Preparing project documentation, including mobilisation and handover information
• Maintaining project programmes, milestone trackers and action plans, identifying potential risks or delays
• Supporting project cost tracking, purchase orders and invoice logs
• Maintaining project files, document registers and version-controlled information
• Keeping project records accurate, organised and up to date

About you

This role is intended for recent graduates or those with up to two years' relevant experience. We recognise that strong candidates may not meet every criterion. If you can demonstrate relevant capability and believe you could succeed in the role, we encourage you to apply.

You will be able to demonstrate:

• A genuine interest in buildings, facilities management, energy and sustainability
• Curiosity and a desire to understand how buildings and organisations operate
• Strong analytical skills and excellent attention to detail
• Good Microsoft 365 skills, particularly Excel, Word and PowerPoint
• The confidence to learn new digital tools and data systems
• Good written, verbal and presentation skills
• The ability to manage several workstreams and priorities at the same time
• Self-motivation and initiative, while recognising when to seek advice and support
• The ability to build positive working relationships with people at all levels, from operational teams to senior stakeholders

A degree (or equivalent) is essential. Engineering, building services, property, surveying or facilities management disciplines are preferred, but we welcome graduates from related subjects who can demonstrate the right aptitude, curiosity and enthusiasm to develop a career in consultancy.

Why this role is different

From the outset, you will work on projects that influence how some of the UK’s most significant estates are managed and developed. Rather than being limited to one site or one discipline, you will gain experience across a wide range of sectors, organisations and technical challenges.

You will work closely with experienced consultants who will invest in your development, provide regular mentoring and help you build both technical and consulting skills. Successful graduates can expect a clear pathway to Consultant as you develop the capability, confidence and experience required for the role.
