FM Service Supervisor
Location: Farnborough
Permanent | Full-time | Predominantly Office-Based
Salary: £40,000 - £45,000 + Bonus + Excellent Benefits
We are recruiting for an experienced FM Service Supervisor to join a major organisation delivering engineering and facilities management services across some of the UK's largest customer contracts.
This is a key operational leadership position, responsible for managing a team of approximately 8 Service Coordinators/Support professionals who collectively support the activities of up to 50 field-based engineers across major FM contracts within sectors including Banking, Healthcare and other critical customer environments.
We're looking for an established people manager from a Facilities Management, Building Services, Engineering Services or similar service-led environment. You don't need to be a technical specialist or come from a Fire & Security background; however, you must understand the demands of supporting field-based engineering services and have proven experience leading, developing and driving the performance of an operational service team.
The Role
As FM Service Supervisor, you'll take ownership of the day-to-day performance of the service support function, ensuring engineers and customers receive the operational support required to deliver against contractual commitments and service levels.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Leading, coaching and developing a team of approximately 8 service support/coordinator staff.
- Overseeing the coordination and operational support of up to 50 field-based engineers.
- Managing workloads, resources, attendance and team performance to ensure operational priorities are achieved.
- Supporting the delivery of major Facilities Management contracts across Banking, Healthcare and other large customer environments.
- Monitoring performance against KPIs, SLAs and contractual service requirements, identifying trends and areas for improvement.
- Overseeing engineer scheduling, dispatch and planned maintenance activities.
- Acting as an escalation point for operational and customer service issues, ensuring problems are resolved effectively.
- Working closely with Service Managers, Engineers, Sales teams and customers to maintain excellent service delivery.
- Overseeing key service administration activities including quotations, invoicing, procurement, contract administration and service documentation.
- Supporting Health & Safety, RAMS and wider compliance processes.
- Producing operational reports and updates for senior management.
- Identifying opportunities to improve processes, systems, team efficiency and the overall customer experience.
- Supporting the implementation of new systems, processes and continuous improvement initiatives.

- Experience working against operational KPIs and customer SLAs.
- The ability to manage competing priorities within a busy service environment.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience of RAMS, Health & Safety compliance, procurement, invoicing, service management systems or strategic FM contracts would be advantageous but isn't essential.
Importantly, you do not need to be a Fire & Security specialist. We're much more interested in your ability to lead people and successfully manage a busy service support function within an FM or engineering services environment.

- 26 days' annual leave + bank holidays
- Option to buy or sell an additional 5 days' holiday
