The Role

We have an exciting new role for someone who is passionate about creating a best-in-class client experience alongside an environment in which employees thrive.

This role is crucial in maintaining our office infrastructure and overseeing the provision of essential services, working closely with our Head of Compliance, ensuring the implementation of our Business Continuity Plan.


At AMS, facilities management plays a crucial role in shaping both client and employee experience. The way we manage our offices directly impacts how our clients perceive our brand and services, alongside the morale and efficiency of our team. By creating an inviting space, ensuring cleanliness and functionality, prioritising safety, and security, delivering outstanding service, and adding personal touches, you will elevate the client experience and build strong, long-lasting relationships with all who visit us. Attention to detail and a thoughtful approach are critical to this role.



Who Are We?

We’ve since expanded into a nationwide network spanning London, Birmingham, Manchester, Blackburn, Leeds, Leicester and Dewsbury.


We employ over 145 people, who are all specialists in their field offering a tailored service depending on a client’s needs. We’re also a great unified team, complementing each other’s technical knowledge and network of contacts to offer additional value where possible.

  • Lead facilities-related projects, including renovations, refurbishments, and office moves, ensuring they are completed on time and within budget.
  • You will play a crucial role in ensuring the continuity and resilience of our Group during unexpected disruptions or crises. You will be responsible for developing and implementing business continuity plans and strategies, conducting risk assessments, and coordinating recovery efforts. This role requires problem-solving, and project management skills, as well as the ability to work effectively with stakeholders at all levels of the organisation.
