Lead continuous improvement efforts, introducing new products and ideas aligned with industry trends and trust needs.
Collaborate closely with internal and external stakeholders to maintain service excellence.
Ensure security of Trust and Medirest property and support profit protection initiatives.

What We’re Looking For

Proven senior management experience in Facilities Management and operational leadership.
A strong track record of leading, motivating, and developing large teams.
Experience implementing change programmes and delivering operational efficiencies.
Commercially astute with experience in competitive and price-sensitive environments.
Strong communicator with excellent presentation and interpersonal skills.
In-depth knowledge of current Health & Safety and food safety legislation.
Skilled in risk management, analysis, and mitigation.
Experience in managing third-party and client relationships at a senior level.

Why Join Us?

This is your chance to make a real impact in a healthcare setting that makes a difference in people’s lives every day. You’ll have the autonomy to lead operations, shape strategy, and drive excellence, supported by a committed and values-driven team.

We ensure you're rewarded for all your hard work, which is why we offer a comprehensive benefits package which includes but is not limited to:
