Heritage is for everybody, and we are here for heritage.

Heritage lives in places and people, memories and stories, artefacts and traditions. It can connect us all to the past, and to each other. It can make us happier, strengthen every community, and help shape society for the better. Everybody should be able to enjoy the benefits it brings.

That's why, as a charity, we care for over a million objects and hundreds of historic sites in every part of England, from international icons to local treasures. And it's why we open them up, share their stories and find new ways for everybody to enjoy, learn, play and create.

We are looking for a Regional Head of Estates London (internally the role is known as Senior Estate Manager) to join our team. The role is full-time and permanent, working 36 hours per week.

The London portfolio brings together more than 20 historic sites across the capital and surrounding area, including Kenwood House, Eltham Palace and Gardens, Marble Hill House, Apsley House, Wellington Arch, Down House, Tilbury Fort, Jewel Tower, London Wall, Winchester Palace, the Royal Artillery Monument, historic statues and the Cenotaph. This is a distinctive regional leadership role combining historic mansions with nationally important monuments, memorials, archaeological remains and complex urban stakeholder requirements. You will lead the regional Estates team and oversee an annual estates and maintenance budget of more than £3 million.

Based in London, you may work from home or from one of our site-based offices (Kenwood or Eltham Palace), but you will be expected to spend a proportionate amount of your time at Kenwood, Eltham Palace and Apsley House, and travel regularly throughout the region to attend meetings, site visits and engage with colleagues.

The Benefits

Salary from £54,540, depending on skills, experience and location

25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, pro rata, rising to 28 days after 3 years

Matched pension contributions up to 10%

Flexible hours

The opportunity to progress your career within the heritage sector

Apprenticeship opportunities

Subscriptions to professional bodies

Free access to all English Heritage sites for you and up to six friends and family members

25% discount in our shops and cafes

Enhanced maternity, paternity or shared parental leave

Options to buy additional leave

An inclusive working atmosphere everybody is supported from all backgrounds, religions and with different needs

Opportunities to go to some of our great live music and history events

This is a significant senior leadership role at the heart of English Heritage's work, shaping how some of the country's most significant historic places are cared for, maintained and developed for the future. You will lead, coach and develop a multidisciplinary team, ensuring consistent delivery of maintenance, compliance, conservation and operational priorities. You will manage cyclical, reactive, compliance and capital programmes and an annual estates and maintenance budget of more than £3 million, provide assurance on health and safety, fire and statutory responsibilities, and advise regional and senior stakeholders on estate, maintenance and asset management priorities. This is a unique opportunity to help shape estate delivery across a portfolio of historic buildings and structures in London.

We are looking for an experienced estates, property, conservation or facilities leader with strong people leadership, programme and budget management experience. You will bring excellent stakeholder management skills, sound judgement on risk and compliance, and the ability to lead multidisciplinary teams, manage complex programmes and drive continuous improvement in a busy urban heritage environment.

To be considered for the role you'll need experience of:

1. Building and managing complex work programmes and budgets.

2. Working at a senior level contributing to national and departmental strategy and policy.

3. Leading a multi-functional team through periods of change.

4. Procuring and managing construction and maintenance contracts.

5. Leading teams managing an estate with a range of property related issues including safety, legal and statutory requirements.

Interviews will be held on 24th September 2026 at Kenwood House, Hampstead Lane, London NW3 7JR.

If you would like to talk to us e.g. about workplace adjustments or working patterns, please contact Jamie Cain, Head of Estates, on [email protected]. No agencies please.

Everybody's welcome at English Heritage

Forget the stereotypes. It takes thousands of people from every background to care for England's heritage and open it up for everybody to enjoy. We're looking for every type of person with every kind of skill and experience, and we're committed to making sure that English Heritage is an equitable, diverse and inclusive place to work. You can connect with others through our EDI networks as a member or ally. These include Ethnic Diversity, Faith & Belief, Social Equity, LGBTQ+, Neurodivergence, Age, Disability and Gender Health and Wellbeing.

We take wellbeing seriously. We are committed to ensuring everyone feels safe at work and can carry out their role. To support this, we have a network of Mental Health First aiders, regular information and awareness events, unlimited access to an Employee Assistance Programme and work with our people to implement reasonable adjustments.
