FM & Workplace Manager

The Management Recruitment Group are delighted to be working with Montagu Evans to appoint their new FM & Workplace Manager, based in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Montagu Evans is a leading independent property consultancy operating across the UK, with offices in London, Manchester, Glasgow, and Edinburgh. They are owned and run by a group of partners who are all outstanding leaders in their retrospective fields, and central to their operation is the people they employ and their clients – summed up perfectly by their ethos: be a partnership, be creative, be honest, and be yourself.

The role of the FM & Workplace Manager is pivotal to the success of the organisation. Being effective in managing a diverse portfolio of buildings and stakeholders, providing a best-in class customer experience to all, as well as being responsible for the facilities function that is delivered. It is about being in the detail, planning and coordinating essential works, maintaining compliance and safety standards, and keeping track of service charges and invoicing. No two days are ever the same, so a significant amount of time will be spent out of the office visiting the various building across the portfolio. You will get to meet different clients, each with different needs, and you will be the go-to person!

To be successful in this position, you will have a core facilities management understanding and background – this is essential as you will be providing advice and guidance to your clients. Incorporated into this will be a strong understanding of Health and Safety, and statutory compliance standards. If you have experience of working with service charges and invoicing it would be a bonus, as well as holding NEBOSH – however IOSH is required as a minimum. Central to Montagu Evans is their people, so your communication and interpersonal skills will be outstanding. You will be progressive in your thinking and approach, and passionate about providing a best-in-class customer experience. IWFM Level 3 is required as a minimum, and IWFM Level 4 would be highly advantageous. However, extensive experience and understanding of the world of FM is most important.
