Interim Property & Facilities Asset Manager
75 per hour 6–9 Month Contract Hybrid (Berkshire/Home–based)
We're supporting a major UK organisation in the appointment of an experienced Property & Facilities Asset Manager to join their Real Estate team on an interim basis.
This is a business–critical BAU role, replacing a long–standing employee who has recently retired. The successful candidate will act as a key SME within a small, collaborative team, overseeing property asset replacement and facilities management activity across a varied UK estate.
This opportunity would suit an experienced estates, facilities, or property professional with strong building maintenance and M&E knowledge, who enjoys working across both operational and strategic property initiatives.
The Role
You’ll work closely with CBRE, who manage the client’s estate portfolio, ensuring effective asset lifecycle management across offices, academies, and industrial sites. The role combines operational oversight with longer‑term property strategy and improvement activity.
Key projects and activities include:
* Supporting property asset replacement programmes across the estate
* Managing and overseeing relationships with CBREContributing to workplace and estate strategy initiatives
* Supporting office relocation activity, including moves
* Assisting with property strategy exercises across academies and wider estate locations
* Ensuring facilities and sustainability initiatives align with wider corporate sustainability goals
While there is some project–related activity involved, this is not a pure project management role. The client is looking for a strong operational SME who can support BAU activities first and foremost.
What We’re Looking For
* Strong experience within Corporate Real Estate, Facilities Management, or Property Asset Management
* Proven background in building maintenance and asset replacement
* Good understanding of M&E systems and facilities operations
* Experience managing outsourced FM providers, ideally CBRE or similar
* Ability to work across a varied property portfolio
* Pragmatic, hands‑on approach with a collaborative mindset
* Sustainability exposure beneficial, though not essential
Additional Information
* Hybrid working model
* Occasional travel to UK sites required
* Initial 6–9 month contract
* The organisation is also exploring a permanent hire, so there may be longer‑term opportunities for candidates interested in a permanent move
If you’re an experienced property and facilities professional looking for a varied, high‑impact interim opportunity, we’d love to hear from you.
