• Leading health & safety, fire safety and risk management activities

• Managing service charge budgets and identifying cost efficiencies

• Overseeing contractor procurement, performance and compliance

• Supporting and developing site-based teams and technicians

• Working closely with Centre Managers and senior stakeholders

• Delivering facilities projects, refurbishments and fit-outs

• Maintaining CAFM systems, compliance records and reporting

• Driving consistency and operational excellence across all sites

To be considered, you must have:

• A minimum of 3 years' experience managing multiple commercial properties/sites simultaneously

• Proven experience in a senior Facilities Management position

• Strong knowledge of both hard and soft FM services

• Experience managing contractors, suppliers and service partners

• Budget ownership and financial management experience

• Excellent knowledge of statutory compliance, building compliance and health & safety legislation

• Experience using CAFM systems and electronic compliance platforms

• The ability to operate independently across a dispersed portfolio

• NEBOSH

• IOSH

• IWFM/BIFM qualification

• Mechanical, electrical or engineering qualification

• Experience within flexible workspace, serviced offices, commercial property or hospitality-led environments

• £55,000 basic salary

• Performance-related bonus

• Comprehensive benefits package

• Ongoing professional development and training

• Career progression within a growing and highly regarded operator

• The opportunity to play a key role within one of London's leading flexible workspace brands

If you're an experienced multi-site Facilities Manager who enjoys being visible within your buildings, leading from the front and taking ownership of a portfolio, we'd love to hear from you.
