This is a varied and mobile position suited to someone who enjoys working across different sites, managing operational challenges, and contributing to a collaborative facilities management team.

Typically, the role will involve four days on site and one day working from home, although there may often be a requirement to be on site five days a week to manage permits, meet contractors, and maintain visibility with stakeholders.

• Maintain full Health & Safety compliance across all sites, proactively identifying and managing risks.

• Manage and maintain the risk register, ensuring risks are actively monitored and mitigated.

• Work closely with Account Support Managers to monitor financial performance and identify opportunities to improve cost efficiency.

• Oversee Permits to Work, Risk Assessments, and Method Statements (RAMS).

• Manage and coordinate sub-contractors, ensuring compliance with standards and performance expectations.

• Ensure full compliance with all statutory and mandatory maintenance requirements.

• Manage statutory responsibilities including Legionella and Asbestos compliance.

• Prepare and submit variation orders for scope changes or additional works.

• Coordinate and manage reactive works through CAFM systems, mobile engineers, and the wider technical team.

• Build strong relationships with client stakeholders, attending meetings and engaging regularly across the site portfolio.

What we're looking for

• Minimum 5 years’ experience within Facilities Management, with responsibility for hard services.

• Experience working in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment.

• Relevant technical qualification.

• NEBOSH qualification (or equivalent) desirable.

• Legionella and Asbestos awareness/qualifications.

• Strong IT skills including MS Office, Outlook, CAFM systems (such as Maximo), and contractor portals.

• Strong organisational and project management abilities.

• Ability to manage multiple priorities and workloads effectively.

• Willingness and flexibility to travel regularly across Scotland.
