- IOSH Managing Safely or equivalent H&S qualification (or willingness to obtain within an agreed timescale).
- Competent in the use of CAFM systems and MS Office applications (Word, Excel, Outlook; PowerPoint desirable).
- Experience managing contractors, suppliers and service provider performance against KPIs and contractual standards.
- Strong knowledge of building services systems planned and reactive maintenance and statutory compliance.
- Experience of supervising or line managing on-site teams and/or contractors, ideally including soft FM services such as cleaning or waste management.
- Demonstrable ability to prioritise, plan and organise workloads to meet competing deadlines.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to interact effectively with clients, occupants, contractors and colleagues.
- Experience within the facilities management industry in a client-facing, single-site role.
