You will:

• ·        Lead and project manage capital works, refurbishment and planned/reactive maintenance across northern schools in line with our Estates Management Strategy.
• ·        Provide competent, pragmatic health & safety leadership, including risk assessment support, accident/incident investigation and oversight of statutory testing (e.g., fire, asbestos and other compliance checks).
• ·        Work with principals, SBMs and site teams to ensure consistent estates systems, records and contractor management across the region.
• ·        Identify, coordinate and help secure external funding opportunities to improve and modernise the estate.
• ·        Contribute to Trust-wide estates reporting, risk management and continuous improvement.

Under the leadership of the Director of Operations, you’ll work alongside the Regional Estates Manager (South) to deliver our Estates Management Strategy, ensuring the Trust is well positioned in line with the Department for Education’s Education Estates Strategy and Good Estate Management for Schools (GEMS) guidance.
