Supervisor – Facilities Management

(WPS) ¦ Northamptonshire

We are looking for a Supervisor to support the delivery of small works, emergency response and subcontractor management across our FM contracts in Northamptonshire.

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically grounded supervisor with a plumbing or kitchen/bathroom installation background, who has progressed into managing contractors, reactive works and minor projects within a Facilities Management environment.

About The Role

As Supervisor, you will act as a key on-site point of contact, coordinating sub-contractors, triaging emergency works and supporting the delivery of minor planned and reactive works.

  • Work closely with the Contract Manager and wider FM team
  • Ensure works are delivered safely, correctly and efficiently
  • Maintain clear communication with clients and stakeholders

This role suits someone who is comfortable being hands-on when required, but equally confident supervising others and managing multiple workstreams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Supervise and coordinate subcontractors on site, ensuring safe, compliant and high-quality delivery
  • Act as the point of communication and liaison between clients, subcontractors and the WPS team
  • Support and triage emergency and reactive works, prioritising and allocating resources effectively
  • Manage and oversee small project works and minor life-cycle works
  • Use CAFM / PDA technology to manage jobs, updates and reporting
  • Ensure all works are delivered in line with legislation, contractual obligations and Wates standards
  • Monitor health & safety performance, embedding a Zero Harm culture on site
  • Provide clear, professional reporting on works completed and issues identified

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.
