Estates & Facilities Officer

Job overview

As an Estates & Facilities Officer, you will play a pivotal role in managing and maintaining the Trust’s buildings and sites. You will act as the day-to-day estates lead for a portfolio of properties, ensuring they are safe, compliant, well-maintained, and used efficiently. The role involves operational responsibility, governance reporting, compliance monitoring, and supporting the delivery of capital projects.

You will work closely with clinical, operational, security, sustainability, and project colleagues, becoming a key link between frontline services and the wider Estates & Facilities function. This is a hands-on, varied role—ideal for someone who enjoys being out on sites as much as contributing to strategic planning.
