Fixed Term position - Immediate start
Main purpose of the role
This is a facilities management post, not a senior technician post. The fixed-term Site Facilities Manager will stabilise the service, expose and control risk, put the core FM systems and supplier arrangements in place, and leave a clear operational handover at the end of 12 weeks.
The Country Centre is a complex 26-acre mixed-use estate and visitor attraction. It includes public areas, catering and retail facilities, farm and animal areas, workshops, play areas, woodland, car parks, event spaces, offices and utilities, all used by staff, visitors, volunteers and people with learning disabilities.
The site team’s core strength is building fabric, fabrication and practical support. Specialist engineering, statutory inspection and technical maintenance must be bought from competent service providers wherever the required skill is not held on site. The postholder is accountable for defining the requirement, appointing and controlling providers, and making sure the result is safe, evidenced, timely and good value.
Who this role could suit
This contract needs an experienced facilities or estates operator who can become effective immediately. It may suit an interim manager or a seasoned FM professional seeking a focused, site-based assignment. It is not a sensible first management appointment: three months is too short for a long learning curve.
The successful candidate does not need to be the best engineer on site. They must know how to define the requirement, select competent people, control risk, support strong performance and keep the service moving.
