• Logging inspections on the Risk Manager App
• Taking monthly utility meter readings where required and keeping records up to date
• Monitoring statutory compliance across the portfolio
• Acting as a point of contact for tenants and making sure issues are resolved promptly
• Liaising with contractors, suppliers and service providers
• Attending regular meetings with the Facilities Manager and Surveyor to review ongoing works and risk management

What we're looking for

• Proven experience in facilities management, property management or a similar role
• Sound knowledge of health and safety, risk identification and statutory compliance
• Confidence dealing with tenants, contractors and suppliers
• A professional, reliable approach and the ability to work independently
• Good IT skills, including Microsoft Office (training on specialist systems is provided)
• Discretion when handling confidential information

Why apply?

• Part-time hours with flexibility, giving you a better work-life balance
• A competitive pro rata salary plus car allowance
• A role where your experience makes a real difference from day one
• Variety, with a mix of office work and site visits
• A friendly, supportive team and a well-established business
