Candidate profile / Qualifications
Cobalt is looking for an Assistant Facilities Manager who is looking to build on their foundation of knowledge in the industry. You\'ll have prior experience helping to run a building (or portfolio of buildings) in their entirety including common areas and shared services rather than just purely tenanted spaces. Ideally you will have experience in line managing people directly, rather than just contractors, and whilst an IOSH is desired, it is not essential. Experience within all sectors will be considered.
