The estate plays a central role in the experience we provide to pupils, staff and the wider College community. Over the last decade, Marlborough has invested approximately £90 million in maintaining, modernising and enhancing its built environment. With a further £90 million programme planned over the next ten years, this is an exciting opportunity to join the College at a pivotal stage in its development and help shape the future of one of the most significant educational estates in the country.

About You We are seeking an experienced capital projects professional with a proven track record of delivering complex construction, refurbishment and development programmes across large operational estates. You may have gained your experience within higher education, independent schools, healthcare, heritage organisations, major property estates or similarly complex environments where buildings remain occupied throughout project delivery. You will bring strong technical and commercial expertise, together with a thorough understanding of project governance, procurement, construction contracts and stakeholder management. Experience of working with listed buildings, conservation constraints and heritage-sensitive projects will be particularly valuable, as will the ability to balance strategic planning with practical project delivery. You will be a confident communicator who can build credibility with senior leaders, professional advisers, contractors and end users alike. Equally comfortable presenting investment proposals to governance committees as you are walking a live construction site, you will combine sound judgement, attention to detail and a collaborative leadership style with a passion for delivering exceptional environments that support long-term organisational success. This is a rare opportunity to lead a major capital programme within an institution of national standing, helping preserve its heritage while delivering the facilities and infrastructure that will support future generations of pupils and staff.

The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the College is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
