We have an exciting opportunity for a Maintenance Manager to lead the delivery of maintenance services across the Wembley National Stadium contract at NG Bailey. Working at one of the UK’s most iconic venues, you’ll keep the Stadium safe, compliant and running at its best, from planned preventative maintenance and reactive works through to lifecycle activities and specialist subcontractor services.

This is a high-profile, hands‑on leadership role. You’ll guide multi‑disciplinated engineering and maintenance teams, act as a trusted advisor to the client and make sure contractual obligations and expectations are consistently met. Events are at the heart of life at the Stadium, so you’ll need to be available for events and, at times, work a flexible pattern with TOIL.

• Leading by example on NG Bailey’s Health, Safety and Wellbeing standards through safety tours, inspections and incident investigations, so every task is delivered safely.

• Owning statutory compliance, from inspections, certifications and remedial works to permits, risk assessments and safe systems of work, and supporting internal and external audits.
• Driving operational readiness for event and non‑event activity across the Stadium estate, and developing maintenance plans that maximise asset reliability and resilience.
• Leading, coaching and developing your teams through one‑to‑ones, performance reviews and talent and succession planning.
• Building strong relationships with client stakeholders, representing NG Bailey at review meetings and providing clear performance reporting and advice on asset performance and risk.
• Managing specialist subcontractors, reviewing quotations for value for money and identifying efficiency and cost‑saving opportunities.
• Using MRI and other maintenance management systems to analyse performance data, support condition surveys and lifecycle planning, and spot trends and opportunities for improvement.

What we’re looking for

• Managing maintenance operations within a large, complex or critical environment
• Building services, planned maintenance and statutory compliance requirements
• Leading multi-disciplinary engineering teams and managing specialist subcontractors
• Managing client and stakeholder relationships with confidence
• Using CAFM systems and Microsoft Office applications
• A recognised qualification (HNC/HND, degree, City & Guilds, NVQ or equivalent) in Mechanical, Electrical or Building Services Engineering
• It would be a bonus to hold IOSH Managing Safely, NEBOSH General Certificate, IWFM, AP/CP or project management qualifications, or membership of a professional body such as IET, CIBSE or IWFM

Benefits:

• 25 Days Holiday + Bank Holidays with an option to Buy/Sell additional days

• Private Medical Insurance
• Life Assurance
