As a result, the estate presents an interesting mix of planned maintenance, statutory compliance, reactive works and longer-term improvement projects. The Role As Building Services Manager , you will act as the Estates team's technical lead for Mechanical & Electrical building services, supporting the ongoing maintenance, improvement and renewal of the organisation's property portfolio. Working closely with the Senior Property Manager and wider Estates team, you will take ownership of building services compliance and help shape annual maintenance and improvement programmes.

Contributing to carbon reduction and environmental initiatives, including assessing new and emerging technologies. Ensuring works comply with relevant legislation, Building Regulations, Health & Safety requirements, CDM and internal procurement procedures. Managing works to agreed programmes and budgets while considering whole-life asset costs. About You The successful Building Services Manager will bring broad M&E/building services knowledge together with experience of managing maintenance contracts and projects across a multi-site estate. You will ideally be able to demonstrate: Experience managing statutory compliance, planned preventative maintenance and reactive maintenance. A strong background delivering both major and minor M&E projects, including contract administration and budgetary control. Experience managing building services consultants, contractors and suppliers. The ability to undertake building services condition and asset surveys and translate findings into practical programmes of work. Experience preparing specifications, tender documentation, drawings and cost estimates. Good knowledge of building services legislation, technical standards and statutory compliance requirements.
