Job description

Overview

Technical Facilities Manager, Hampshire & London, cGBP53k plus GBP4.5k car allowance and package

We are recruiting a Technical Facilities Manager for our client, a rapidly growing FM Services Provider. They operate in the commercial/ office / corporate and private healthcare sectors. The Technical FM will provide M&E/ hard services advice to Building Managers and to clients.

You will initially be based, for approx. 3 months at a large commercial/ science park in Havant, Hampshire. Thereafter the role will be split between Havant, London and home.

The Havant site consists of large office buildings, R&D facilities, leisure and food outlets. It is powered from a central energy centre (CEC). Familiarisation with CECs and large scale chillers, cooling towers and similar \'megawatt\' plant (e.g. hospital, MOD site) is preferred.

Part of the site is undergoing renovation and redevelopment. The FM Contract Manager will interface with project managers, consultants and contractors to ensure the smooth and safe day to day running of the estate during this period of change.

You will oversee site FM contractors (approx. 30 engineers, cleaning, security and grounds personnel) and ensure they deliver an effective service. Where shortfalls of service occur, you will manage contractors to perform better and achieve compliance to their contractual and HSE obligations.

After approx. 3 months the above requirement will diminish to approx. 2 days per week and responsibilities for some other hard FM contracts in London will come your way.

Then you will directly manage and develop a small team of M&E maintenance engineers and will procure, direct and manage specialist M&E sub contractors. You will tender for and lead on M&E projects/ life cycle works such as plant and chiller refurbishments and replacements.

The role is expected to grow with the business, so someone looking to grow their career with a dynamic, expanding organisation will be a great fit.

Please note for the first 3 months of the role, there will be a requirement to be based out of the clients site in Havant, Hampshire. After the 3 months, the role will be based in London and Havant and also some home working.

My client will also consider candidates who'd only be interested in an initial 3 month contract based in Havant.

A salary of up to GBP53k plus GBP4.5k car allowance is on offered benefits package.
