Job Description

Do you enjoy keeping workplaces safe, functional, and well-presented? Our client is looking for a proactive Facilities Assistant to support the day-to-day management of multiple office locations.

This is a hands-on facilities role where you'll be responsible for maintaining high workplace standards across sites. From coordinating maintenance and managing suppliers to overseeing office moves and ensuring health & safety compliance, you'll play a key part in keeping offices running smoothly and efficiently.

You'll regularly travel between sites, acting as the on-the-ground point of contact for facilities matters.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Support the Facilities / Operations Manager with the effective running of multiple office locations.
  • Act as first point of contact for day-to-day facilities issues, escalating to contractors where required.
  • Coordinate planned and reactive maintenance, repairs, and servicing.
  • Oversee office setups, moves, refurbishments, and workspace reconfigurations.
  • Manage deliveries, furniture, equipment, and storage across sites.
  • Liaise with external contractors and service providers to ensure work is completed on time and to standard.
  • Carry out regular site inspections to ensure offices are safe, tidy, compliant, and well maintained.
  • Support health & safety processes, including checks, reporting, and maintaining safe working environments.
  • Maintain accurate records of assets, maintenance schedules, and supplier information.

About You

You're practical, organised, and take pride in well-run, safe, and welcoming workplaces. You enjoy a role that combines coordination with hands-on facilities work and are comfortable responding to issues as they arise. You're confident working independently and happy travelling between sites.

What You'll Bring:

  • Experience in facilities, operations, property, or workplace support (professional services experience desirable).
  • A practical, problem-solving mindset with a proactive approach.
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
  • Confidence using Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams).
  • Excellent communication skills when dealing with colleagues, suppliers, and contractors.
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks across different locations.
  • Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel between sites.

Company Benefits:

  • 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays
  • Free parking
