Property Coordinator in Newham

£34,000 - £39,000 | London | Hybrid / Field Based | Permanent

Are you a practical, hands-on property or facilities professional who enjoys being out on site as much as managing people and solving problems?

We're recruiting a Field Operations Coordinator for a growing, purpose-led property organisation. This is a varied role combining facilities and property knowledge, field operations and team leadership.

You'll manage and develop a small, flexible field team, coordinate inspections and contractor visits, visit properties across London and surrounding areas, and help assess the work required to get buildings ready for occupation.

This isn't a traditional desk-based FM role. You'll be out in the field, looking at buildings, identifying issues, quality-checking work and using your practical knowledge to help make good property decisions. Specialist works are handled by contractors, so you don't need to be an engineer or qualified tradesperson.

• Leading, coaching and developing a small field-based team
• Coordinating property inspections, contractor visits and field activity
• Visiting and assessing properties to identify maintenance and operational requirements
• Quality-checking inspections and contractor works
• Improving communication between field-based and office teams
• Managing operational processes including keys, equipment and site facilities
• Helping improve systems, processes and ways of working

You could come from Facilities Management, Property, Housing, Building Services, Maintenance Coordination or a similar operational environment.

You'll ideally have:

• Good practical knowledge of how residential buildings work
• An understanding of general maintenance, plumbing, heating, electrics and building condition
• Some line management, supervisory or team coaching experience
• Confidence dealing with contractors and resolving practical problems
• Good organisation and communication skills
• A proactive, resourceful approach
• Confidence picking up new technology and systems

Most importantly, you'll enjoy being out and about, working independently and getting things done.

Genuine career progression

This is a Monday-to-Friday role combining field work, home working and regular time at an East London office.

If you enjoy buildings, people and problem-solving and want a role with plenty of variety and autonomy, we'd love to hear from you.
