We are seeking an experienced Head of Facilities Management to lead the strategic and operational management of our diverse property portfolio, including care homes, the Veterans Village, supported accommodation and community facilities across Scotland.
As a member of the Senior Leadership Team, you will lead the development and delivery of Erskine's estates and facilities strategy, ensuring our buildings remain safe, compliant, sustainable and fit for the future.
