We’re looking for a Facilities and Health & Safety Manager to take ownership of maintenance, Health & Safety compliance, and facilities across all our services. Someone who is comfortable managing a maintenance team, managing contractors, and making sure Health & Safety actions actually get done, not just logged.
This role is a part-time position, 25 hours per week, you will be based at our head office Sense Touchbase Pears, with travel across our residential homes and supported living services.
What you’ll be doing:
- Planning and coordinating maintenance and facilities works across our homes and services — using your own team where you can, and trusted contractors where you can’t.
- Owning our relationship with Cohesion, our Health & Safety audit provider, and driving their audit actions through to completion alongside our managers.
- Managing external H&S contractors, from fire and electrical to legionella testing, making sure the right checks and paperwork are in place.
- Line managing our maintenance team — developing and supporting them.
- Overseeing procurement and supplier contracts to get genuine value for money.
- Managing the facilities and maintenance budget, with real input into forecasts and planning.
