Assistant Facilities Manager
Central London
Are you an Assistant Building Manager, Assistant Facilities Manager or FM Coordinator ready for a new challenge? This is a chance to broaden your experience across a portfolio of London properties and grow with a business that's expanding.
The company
My client is an independent property consultancy that manages a portfolio of commercial assets across London. They have a close-knit, family feel, a friendly and supportive team, and a strong reputation with their clients. The business is growing, so this is a great time to join and build your career alongside it.
The role
You'll be the Assistant Facilities Manager for a small portfolio of buildings, working closely with the Senior Facilities Manager and the Property Managers, who will support your development from day one. It's a varied, hands-on role that offers much wider exposure than a single-site position, with real scope to progress as the portfolio expands.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
