Facilities Manager

Position: Facilities Manager (Contract)
Do you pride yourself on being a "trusted partner" rather than just a name on an email? Our client is looking for a dynamic leader to oversee integrated facility operations across the Gloucestershire area. This is a role for someone who is as comfortable diving into financial budgets as they are walking the site to ensure safety cultures are truly embedded.

The Role As a Facilities Manager, you’ll:

* Own the integrated operation, managing everything from planned and reactive engineering maintenance to soft services like cleaning, ensuring all meet strict SLAs.

* Be the face of the contract, building long-lasting stakeholder relationships by being visible, present, and proactive on customer sites.

* Lead the management team in developing service solutions, identifying improvement opportunities through rigorous auditing and performance monitoring.

* Champion Health & Safety, ensuring total compliance with legislation and fostering a genuine "safety first" mindset across the entire team.

* Manage the numbers, taking full commercial responsibility for contract budgets and financial targets while ensuring services are delivered responsibly.

* Keep the paperwork pristine, overseeing all data reporting for maintenance, safe systems of work, and staff competency requirements.
Your Skills To be successful in the role of Facilities Manager, you’ll bring:

* Proven experience managing integrated FM contracts (Hard and Soft services).

* Strong commercial acumen with experience owning budgets and hitting financial targets.

* Exceptional stakeholder management skills—you know how to build trust quickly.

* A deep understanding of H&S legislation and compliance standards.

* Natural leadership qualities, with experience managing contract staff and ensuring competency standards are met.

* The ability to work under pressure and adapt to a fast-moving, high-stakes environment.
What’s in it for you? This isn't just a "fill-the-gap" contract; it's a chance to prove your value in a role that could very well become your next permanent career move. Benefits include:

* A competitive daily rate of £300–£350 (Umbrella).

* A 3–6 month initial term with a strong likelihood of extension or permanent conversion.

* The chance to lead and develop a dedicated contract management team.

* A high-impact role where your improvements to service and quality will be immediately noticed.

* A supportive environment that values a commercially responsible and safety-conscious approach.
