We're seeking a Facilities Manager to join the portfolio leadership team, based at Sudbury Hall also covering The Old Manor at Norbury. We are looking for a well-organised individual to ensure our properties and facilities are aligned with relevant Health & Safety, Environmental, Fire & Security standards. You'll be based at Sudbury Hall, primarily working weekdays with some bank holiday and weekend cover required.

With children at the heart of The Children's Country House at Sudbury, there is always something to discover, explore and learn on your visit to this award winning property. The Children's Country House at Sudbury is designed especially for families, making it a great day out, whatever the weather. Explore the historic country home of the Vernon family in the hall, take a journey through childhood in the museum, or explore in the garden. Our places require regular management and maintenance to ensure that they meet the high standards we expect of National Trust properties. You'll also be co-ordinating our work to create a safe, working environment, deliver conservation and compliance projects.

With many different buildings in our care alongside busy visitor facilities, no two days are the same, with our work influenced by the seasons. Some days you'll be planning maintenance or reacting to issues whilst also leading on compliance and the business services essential to keep the operation going and working safely. It's an exciting time as we refresh facilities and undertake buildings and compliance projects and your involvement will be key.

The Facilities Team includes the Facilities Manager, a Facilities Co-ordinator and two Facilities Assistants, part of a larger friendly team all working towards the conservation of this terrific property, helping to grow support to make our places For Everyone, For Ever.

You'll be part of the leadership team reporting to the General Manager helping to deliver our business plan. As Facilities Manager you'll be leading the facilities team and working closely with Portfolio and Regional colleagues. Your operation will be an active one, monitoring compliance, orchestrating works and delivering projects. You'll be learning from others and supporting their work, coaching good practice.

You'll arrange contractors, track compliance and plan your delivery. You'll be accountable for the running of all aspects of facilities management, making sure we are safe and compliant.

• an understanding of facilities management and maintenance requirements
• good experience of broad compliance and risk management, including knowledge of Health & Safety, CDM regulations, Emergency procedures and Fire & Security procedures.
• good people and customer service skills
