The Opportunity:
An established, high-end provider of premium serviced workspaces is looking for a corporate-grade, hands-on Facilities Manager to take operational ownership of a unique and high-quality commercial property portfolio. We are seeking a practical, proactive, and dependable Facilities Manager to support the day-to-day delivery of facilities operations across a unique character-rich portfolio. This role completely avoids sterile corporate boxes and office politics. Instead, it suits a hands-on problem solver with a developing technical or electrical background who wants to move towards taking full operational ownership of a local portfolio. You will be the visible face of building maintenance, ensuring safe, compliant, and smoothly running hubs that drive occupier satisfaction.
Key Responsibilities:
- First-Line Maintenance: Carry out practical, first-line fault finding and troubleshooting (lighting, basic HVAC checks, power issues) across building services before escalating to external contractors.
- Statutory Compliance: Assist in maintaining 100% compliance across all sites, keeping track of health & safety records, inspections, fire safety logs, and water hygiene certificates.
- Contractor Management: Coordinate and monitor on-site contractors (M&E, cleaning, security, waste), issuing access permits and checking RAMS documentation.
- Occupier Experience: Act as the first point of contact for day-to-day facilities queries from business tenants, assisting with quick problem resolution, office moves, and layout changes.
- Facilities Admin: Support financial record keeping by tracking maintenance spend, raising purchase orders, and logging jobs via the helpdesk system.
What We Are Looking For:
- Ideally from a practical electrical, mechanical, or technical building services background (by qualification or experience).
- Previous experience within a facilities coordination, building maintenance, or property operations environment is highly desirable.
- A hands-on, proactive approach with a genuine willingness to learn, adapt, and develop your skills.
- Excellent customer-facing communication skills.
- A full UK driving licence and a reliable vehicle for travel between regional sites.
