The job
You will be working in the Asset Management and Property Services (AMPS) team which is made up of approximately 20 people in 3 teams; Building Surveying, Facilities Management and Estates.
Our Estates team has 4 surveyors and the Estates Manager role sits within this team.
The portfolio is split into two broad areas, the Investment Portfolio and the Operational Portfolio, both of which have assets totalling approximately £100M each.
The operational assets enable us to deliver services and activities administered by the council on behalf of our residents and the investment assets (retail, offices, industrial, residential), are strategic assets held by the council on behalf of the public for either long term investment and revenue income, regeneration/strategic economic benefit, or both.
Your role will be largely focussed on all aspects of asset management within our operational portfolio, which includes some commercial property but also a number of community assets, including commons, cemeteries, open spaces, allotments and recreation grounds.
You will also have responsibility for handling cases relating to easements, rights of way, encroachments, wayleaves, granting of licences, FIO’s and dealing with day-to-day estate matters.
Our 5-year Asset Management Plan (2024-2029) will form a key part of your role.
