Facilities Co-ordinator (15 hours/3 days per week) in Buckfastleigh

Are you an organised and proactive individual who enjoys keeping things running smoothly? Do you take pride in creating a safe, well-managed and welcoming working environment? We’re looking for a Facilities Co-ordinator to join our team based in Buckfastleigh, Devon. This is a varied and hands-on role where you’ll play a key part in supporting the day-to-day operations of our office and wider property portfolio. Working closely with the Facilities Manager and Facilities Lead, you’ll help ensure our offices are maintained to high standards of safety, compliance and efficiency. You’ll be a key point of contact for colleagues, supporting everything from facilities coordination and supplier management through to onboarding new starters and managing site services. This is a front-facing role with real variety; from coordinating maintenance and compliance checks, to supporting business operations and ensuring our workplaces run smoothly for colleagues and visitors alike.

Please note this is a part-time role (15 hours per week); the ideal working pattern would be 5 hours per day during office hours, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday although for the right person we would consider a slightly different pattern. Please note we would expect the successful person to travel potentially to Southampton once a month.

What you’ll be doing:

• Supporting the day-to-day coordination of facilities across your assigned sites
• Liaising with contractors and service providers to ensure maintenance and services are delivered effectively
• Supporting health and safety compliance, including regular site checks and record keeping
• Managing office supplies, equipment and general site services
• Acting as a point of contact for facilities-related queries
• Supporting new starters and leavers, including equipment and workspace setup
• Coordinating post, courier services and general office administration
• Supporting asset management, fleet coordination and site records
• Assisting with training bookings, travel arrangements and purchasing requests
• Contributing to business continuity planning and wider operational support

What we’re looking for:

• Experience in a facilities, office coordination, administration or similar role
• Strong organisational and planning skills in a fast-paced environment
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal
• Confidence working independently and as part of a wider team
• A proactive, solutions-focused approach
• The ability to build positive relationships with colleagues, clients and suppliers

It’s a bonus if you have:

• Experience working within a Facilities Management or HSEQ environment
• Knowledge of health and safety processes or compliance requirements
• Experience using helpdesk or support systems (e.g. Zendesk)
• Experience supporting audits or quality management systems
• A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel to other sites occasionally

We are focused on creating a diverse and inclusive team. If you can’t tick every box on our job description, then we are still keen to hear from you and are open to supporting your development. That may be working part time or supporting you to gain experience in a specific area – we are a growing company and are able to adapt roles to reflect individual skills.
