Facilities Manager – 12 Month Fixed Term Contract

Hybrid Working

Salary up to £40,000 plus car allowance and benefits.  

Are you out of work and looking for an immediate start?

Are you keen to secure a role working for a leading real estate company?

We are working with a forward-thinking property management company that is seeking a Facilities Manager to oversee a mixed-use portfolio across Kent, Surrey, and Hertfordshire. In this role, you will carry out monthly, quarterly site visits and work from the client’s HQ once a week, with the rest of your time spent working from home; ultimately, you’ll have full autonomy over your diary. This is initially a 12-month fixed-term contract, but there is potential for it to become permanent.

As the Facilities Manager overseeing a portfolio of properties, you will take ownership of producing and managing multiple service charge budgets, ensuring each site remains fully compliant with health and safety requirements and making effective use of the on-site H&S systems. You will be responsible for the ongoing management and performance monitoring of contractors across your buildings. The role also involves handling reactive issues in a timely and cost-effective manner, while maintaining strong relationships with occupiers and ensuring their day-to-day needs are supported professionally and proactively.

You will ideally have experience managing a portfolio of mixed-use or commercial assets. As this role is heavily focused on customer service, you will be confident engaging with tenants and capable of building strong relationships with clients. Experience in producing or managing service charge budgets will be advantageous, and you will ideally hold a minimum of an IOSH certificate. Due to the travel requirements of the role, it is essential that you hold a valid driving licence and have access to your own vehicle.

Our client is keen to move on this vacancy fast and will be looking to interview suitable candidates ASAP.
