• Producing major refurbishment projects for the asset life cycle over the next 5-20 years;

• Exploring and implementing initiatives to increase sustainability throughout the development;

• Ensuring full compliance with UK health and safety legislation;

• Building an in-house FM team and fostering a culture of "continuous improvement" and personal development.

You will have prior experience in managing an estate or portfolio of estates, including mobilisation of new developments, and display a strong track record in building teams of both in-house and outsourced professionals. Our client is looking for a leader with a modern approach to FM that recognises the importance of the profession and it's key role in delivering a first-class experience for customers and residents within your properties. An IOSH or NEBOSH is essential, whilst an IWFM qualification or membership would be looked upon favourably.
