Facilities Manager

Information:

This job is now closed

Job summary

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Facilities Manager to join our growing team. In this exciting role, you will play a pivotal role in overseeing daily building operations.

The ideal candidate will have existing experience working as a Facilities Manager managing the safety on site but also be experienced in the proactive rental of spaces ensuring income generation.

You will have previous experience setting and managing service charge budgets and be able to demonstrate strong knowledge of health & safety / statutory compliance.

Main duties of the job

This is an exciting new role, having recently purchased a building in order to create a local health hub we are now seeking to maximise the income generation for the building whilst also ensuring we meet all our legal obligations as a landlord. The tenants who join us in the building also need to support the aspiration for it to be a community asset, enabling collaboration across the local health system, so creating our first Neighbourhood Health Hub for Hillingdon. We hope that in the near future we will be able to redevelop the building to scale it up and further optimise its capacity, providing space for 1 or more practices to move in.

We are also a tenant of the council at the Civic Centre in Uxbridge, where we also have clinical rooms which we use to provide healthcare services but can also be rented out to health partners. Additionally, we rent some rooms in practices across the Borough which enable us to deliver services closer to peoples homes, so there is a complex picture of us both as a landlord and tenant, which needs to be juggled to ensure best value for money, whilst meeting the needs of patients.

You will be enthusiastic about the facilities management industry, and have an engaging personality, and be comfortable liaising with senior stakeholders.
