Contractor & Project Management

Manage and monitor external contractors across your portfolio.
Ensure contractors meet safeguarding, competency and insurance requirements.
Conduct quality inspections on completed works.
Support the delivery of small capital projects, including refurbishments, compliance upgrades, classroom adaptations and residential improvements.

Financial & Asset Management

Manage maintenance budgets and monitor expenditure.
Review quotations and recommend cost-effective solutions.
Support annual budget planning and capital investment programmes.
Identify lifecycle replacement requirements and contribute to long-term asset planning.

Systems & Reporting

Maintain accurate records within CAFM and maintenance management systems.
Produce site inspection reports and compliance updates.
Monitor outstanding actions and contribute to performance reporting.

About You

We're looking for a proactive and solutions-focused facilities professional who can confidently manage competing priorities across a varied property portfolio.
