You'll lead both planned and reactive maintenance, manage refurbishments and support energy and sustainability initiatives across the region.

This role will mainly cover the East and South-East of England, although travel beyond these areas may be required.

Our Perks:

• B-Fed - complimentary lunch or breakfast.

• Free gym membership.
• Complimentary gym membership for another person (after 2 years service).

• Ensure full compliance with health, safety and environmental regulations
• Lead refurbishment and renovation projects from concept to completion
• Manage maintenance and project budgets, controlling costs without compromising quality
• Build strong relationships with contractors and suppliers, managing SLAs and performance
• Carry out regular site visits to inspect standards and identify risks or improvement opportunities
• Act as the point of contact for emergency and urgent maintenance issues
• Support sustainability and energy-saving initiatives across the estate
• Maintain accurate records of estate assets and works completed

• Minimum 5 years' experience in estates or facilities management
• Strong technical knowledge of building maintenance and M&E system.
• Proven experience managing refurbishment or construction projects
• Solid understanding of health and safety compliance
• Budget management and cost-control experience
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
