Property Facilities Manager

Reigate, Surrey  |  £35,000  |  Full-time, 37.5 hours

Our client, a small and friendly property management company, is looking for a Property Facilities Manager to join their team, reporting directly to the Managing Director.

You'll take ownership of planned and reactive maintenance across a varied portfolio of predominantly commercial property across Surrey, Kent and the surrounding areas, with support from a Facilities Administrator handling diary management for health and safety and risk assessment work.

This is a hands-on, client-facing role for someone who enjoys variety, problem-solving, and being the person contractors, tenants and clients turn to when something needs sorting.

What you'll be doing

• Maintaining processes and records for client properties relating to property maintenance.
• Managing databases for cyclical maintenance and property compliance records.
• Identifying and reviewing new contractors, and assisting with tendering, quotations and contractor invoicing.
• Responding to tenant calls, emails and direct contact, identifying and procuring maintenance and repair work.
• Attending client properties for regular inspection.
• Preparing annual service charge budgets for each property and forecasting to year end.
• Planning and implementing contract and cyclical works.
• Monitoring maintenance budget spending.
• Working cooperatively with the wider team, including fielding enquiries and occasional out-of-hours work.

What we're looking for

• Relevant work experience and a willingness to develop new skills - health and safety qualifications are a benefit but not essential.
• Good people-handling skills, particularly with clients, tenants and contractors.
• Confident use of Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook, and good general IT skills.
• A full UK driving licence with access to a vehicle.
• A team player who works well within a small, friendly team.

What's in it for you

• 20 days holiday plus bank holidays, and time off at Christmas.
• Potential for 1 day a week working from home (available after an initial period, subject to a suitable home working environment being in place).
• A small, friendly team where you'll have real ownership of your portfolio.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today, or get in touch for a confidential chat about the role.
