You’ll be kept busy and need to be able to handle a varied workload. Emergencies are par for the course in facilities management, so we’re looking for someone who is flexible, adaptable and will remain calm under pressure. Whilst this is primarily an office-based role, there will be times when you’ll need to get your hands dirty, approximately a 70/30 split.

- Monitor job progress, highlighting to the SDM and BEM, if jobs are at risk of failing KPIs.
- Oversee sub-contractors who carry out the installation and maintenance to our assets.
- Scope and manage additional works i.e., remedials, obtain quotes from contractors, raise POs, order parts, hire equipment, etc. as required.

- Maintain both electronic and hard copy files inc. inspection reports, certificates, etc. and update CAFM system accordingly.
- Undertake emergency repairs as required.
- Provide technical advice and support to the team, DIO and customer.
- Act as back-up on call manager via telephone, approx. 1 in every 5 weeks (additional remuneration).
