• Conduct in-depth market analysis and benchmarking of the UK property, FM and construction markets, including landlords, developers, contractors and service providers.
• Lead commercial negotiations with landlords, developers, contractors and FM suppliers, and conclude lease agreements, service contracts and construction/works contracts.
• Review lease terms, service level agreements (SLAs) and construction contracts, working with Legal to manage risk and compliance (e.g. JCT/NEC forms of contract, landlord and tenant law, building regulations).
• Qualification, verification and evaluation of suppliers, contractors, landlords and agents.
• Manage procurement projects (Requests for Information, Requests for Quotation, Requests for Proposal) for property, FM and construction categories.
• Build and maintain relationships with landlords, agents, contractors and FM providers, and manage ongoing supplier performance.
• Track key lease events (renewal dates, break options, rent reviews) and support timely decision-making on the property portfolio.
• Support cost optimisation, sustainability and space utilisation initiatives across the UK property and FM portfolio.
• Collaborate with Legal, Finance, Health & Safety, and Operations on property, FM and construction matters.
• Cyclical performance and KPI reporting for the property, FM and construction categories.
• Maintain complete tender and contract documentation, and work in SAP and other ERP systems.
