Are you a proactive facilities management professional with a knack for ensuring seamless operations and high standards? Join our team as an Assistant Facilities Manager and play a crucial role in delivering efficient and compliant maintenance services in accordance with statutory and MoD requirements.
In this role, you’ll oversee the daily delivery of maintenance and response activities, monitoring the performance of supply chain teams and ensuring that qualified personnel are assigned to the right tasks with the right tools. Your attention to detail and commitment to quality will ensure that all performance indicators are met, and tasks are meticulously documented in the CAFM system. You’ll be actively involved in risk management, reviewing Risk Assessments and Method Statements, and supporting a safety-first culture by coordinating safe practices, especially for projects involving Working at Height, Confined Spaces, and Asbestos and Legionella compliance.
Working closely with the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) and end-users, you’ll serve as a single point of contact, ensuring quick resolution of any issues, building strong client relationships, and offering technical guidance.
