Bristol, United Kingdom University of Bristol Full time

The role

This is a exciting opportunity for Space Planning Managers to join the University of Bristol’s growing Campus Planning and Design Team, at a pivotal moment in the future shaping of the University Campus. The roles currently being recruited for will focus on both immediate planning needs within Faculties and across Learning & Teaching and Professional Services, and the need to create a longer-term visionary plan for space and place utilisation across the University.

The University is focused on creating information-rich, future-facing learning and working environments, which are agile, hybrid, blended and efficient and which respond well to need. As part of a multi-disciplinary team, the roles will help shift planning cycles from short term to longer-term, with the aim being to develop a clear master-plan for the future which will shape the investment and development plans for the University’s built environment.

What will you be doing?

Our Space Planning Managers act at the interface between a wide range of professional and academic colleagues, departments and stakeholders, both internal and external. As a core function within Campus Planning and Design, the roles will help a shift toward integrated, collaborative working and planning, assisting Campus to bind estates information, space and asset management, campus planning, professional and teaching operational delivery, sustainability objectives (including for a net zero carbon campus) and the development of capital projects aimed at transforming the estate.

As core part of Campus Planning and Design, our Space Planning Managers work within a multi-disciplinary studio environment and to help manage new referrals/requests for change and shape the future. The role will therefore include the need to plan ahead, shape space and placemaking and influence thinking about how to improve space and use space more effectively.

You should apply if

You must have a passion for making a difference; huge enthusiasm for the function of space planning, the interpretation of data and excellent skill-sets in space and place shaping through collaborative working; a Degree (or equivalent) in a numerate discipline plus experience of collaborating with multidisciplinary teams providing built environment expertise and support; committed to positive change and shaping the future of the tertiary education sector; excellent interpersonal skills.
