Summary

We have an opportunity for a well organised Facilities Manager to ensure our properties and facilities are compliant with relevant Health & Safety, Environmental, Fire & Security standards.

What it's like to work here

Here in the Yorkshire Dales we look after some of the most dramatic upland limestone landscape in the country, with many of the distinctive landscape features for which the Dales are so admired. The Dales provides spiritual refreshment and inspiring activities for all. It is a place where people experience change and continuous adaptation, through the National Trust’s management of its stunning landscapes for water, habitats, wildlife and historic environment in the face of an ever changing climate, for the enjoyment of current and future generations.

What you'll be doing

For us facilities aren’t a back office function, so you’ll be out and about inspecting our properties and keeping on top of our systems. As part of the property team you’ll report into the General Manager, and be accountable for the running of all aspects of facilities management across our properties, making sure we are safe and compliant.

Who we're looking for

• 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

• Experience of managing budgets, finances, projects and contracts/contractors

• Advanced IT skills

Wherever you’re from, and whatever your background, we want to hear from you – and it doesn’t matter if you’re jam first, cream first, or even if you don’t like scones at all. Everyone is welcome.

• Free parking at most locations
