Facilities and Estates Managaer wanted in Leicester for a well established, family run group of care homes.
Are you an experienced Facilities or Estates Manager with a passion for ensuring safe, efficient, and sustainable environments? We’re looking for a dynamic leader to manage an estate of 12 care facilities, ensuring exceptional facilities for residents, staff, and visitors.
As Facilities and Estates Manager, you will be part of a small close knit team, working closely with a support team at Head Office. You will oversee building maintenance, health & safety compliance, and projects across all sites. Your expertise will be key in maintaining high standards, driving operational efficiency, and enhancing the quality of life for residents.
To be a Facilities and Estates Manager, you will know a thing or two about the maintenance of care homes and you MUST have a driving license to be considered.
Perhaps you are a retired builder or someone from a trade, who is looking for a new direction.... this could be it.
The role will entail working closely with the Home Managers and the Directors to make sure this group of lovely care homes is getting the very best out of their facilities.
As Facilities and Estates Manager you will understand the need to be organised, whilst having great judgement when it comes to prioritising work....after all this will be your main job.
Some scenarios to consider:
Care Home Manager A has some flooring that needs attention, whilst Care Home Manager B is frustrated by some flickering light bulbs, not to mention Care Home Manager C who has been needing some new beds and Care Home Manager D who is concerned with some uneven paving in the car park.......
The Facilities and Estates Manager will come to their rescue, having a calming influence and emphatic approach.
As well as pricing up jobs and gaining quotes from third parties that they already use, you will identify which jobs are of most priority and cascade this down with the very best levels of communication, keeping everybody in the loop.
Part of a growing company, with three new recent acquisitions and a further two on the way, it's a great time to join the team, with the potential of this role growing into something quite special.
This role is offering a competitive salary of up £35k per annum + additional benefits. The hours are Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
