If you are an experienced Facilities Manager who wants their work to genuinely matter, this role offers the chance to look after a unique portfolio of peaceful, nature-rich sites.

The opportunity

You will take ownership of the built infrastructure and facilities across multiple sites, ensuring buildings, utilities, plant and equipment are safe, compliant and running smoothly. Working closely with on-site Grounds Managers and reporting to a senior manager at your "home park", you will be the go-to specialist for maintenance, compliance, and continuous improvement of all built assets.

What you will be doing

  • Managing planned and reactive maintenance for buildings, utilities and associated systems across all parks.
  • Ensuring core facilities services (maintenance, cleaning, waste, security) are delivered efficiently and to a high standard.
  • Overseeing site security systems, including CCTV, alarms and access control.
  • Leading on health and safety across the built estate: risk assessments, statutory compliance, documentation, inspections and audits.
  • Acting as first point of contact for H&S incidents, driving investigation, resolution and learning.
  • Managing contractors and service providers, from tender through to performance and value for money.
  • Overseeing equipment, fleet and asset management, including maintenance schedules, replacement cycles and a central asset register.
  • Supporting development and improvement projects – from technical input and specifications to on-site delivery.
  • Working with park and grounds managers on budgets, purchase orders, reporting and standard operating procedures.

About you

  • Strong facilities management and building maintenance experience, ideally across multiple sites.
  • Confident with health and safety management, risk assessments, audits and statutory compliance.
  • Comfortable managing contractors, procurement processes and supplier relationships.
  • Good working knowledge of mechanical and electrical systems and building fabric maintenance.
  • Excellent organiser and project manager, able to juggle competing priorities across several locations.
  • Strong communicator who can work independently and collaboratively with a wide range of stakeholders.
  • Competent using Microsoft Office and digital reporting systems, with a full, clean UK driving licence.

This role would suit someone who enjoys being out and about on site, is proactive about spotting issues before they become problems, and takes pride in creating safe, well-run environments for colleagues and visitors.

Why join

Alongside the satisfaction of working in beautiful natural surroundings and contributing to a service that really supports people, you will receive:

  • Salary Β£35,000 – Β£40,000 (depending on experience) plus discretionary bonus.
  • 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays off and day off for birthday.
  • Enhanced pension (6% employer / 3% employee).
  • Life assurance.
  • Employee Assistance Programme and healthcare plan.
  • Company sick pay.
  • Bicycle to work scheme and free on-site parking.
  • Retail discounts plus home and tech scheme.
