FM & Group Projects Director

Predominantly site-based with some remote flexibility

Salary £100,000 – £110,000 + Company Benefits

SP Executive Search is working with a hospitality and venue-driven organisation operating across a large, complex, multi-site estate to appoint an FM & Group Projects Director.

This is a true dual-role leadership position, combining strategic facilities management oversight with responsibility for delivering major group-wide capital and transformation projects within a live, customer-facing environment.

The Role:

A senior, dual-focus position responsible for safeguarding and evolving a complex estate while driving significant capital programmes.

You will sit at the centre of operational delivery, owning FM performance while translating long-term strategy into action across facilities, assets and major projects.

This is a role for someone who owns outcomes, not tasks.

What you will do:

• Own and drive FM performance across a diverse, multi-building estate
• Hold third-party suppliers and delivery partners to account on cost, quality and timelines
• Lead major capital and estate projects from strategy through to delivery
• Manage governance, budgets, risk and momentum across live environments
• Ensure projects move at pace without drift, cost escalation or loss of control

About you:

• Proven experience operating across both capital projects and FM within large, complex estates
• Background in hospitality, venues, stadiums, arenas or other live, event-led environments
• Senior credibility operating at Director or senior Head of level
• A strong generalist leader with credible technical understanding
• Commercial, decisive and delivery-focused
• Comfortable working in fluid, high-profile environments where operations and projects run in parallel

High-potential candidates stepping up into director-level roles will be considered where capability, judgement and pace are evident.

This is not a hands-on FM role.

This is not a consultancy position.

This is about ownership, accountability and delivery.
