We’re looking for a Senior Facilities Manager who’s all about people, progress, and positivity. This isn’t just about keeping the lights on — it’s about creating spaces where our teams can do their best work and feel their best too.

From compliance and maintenance to catering, cleaning, and even the Spa — you’ll lead across multiple service areas, making sure everything is audit-ready, high-performing, and people-first.

• Think big, act smart — bring fresh ideas and turn them into real improvements.
• Keep people safe and happy — make health, safety, and wellbeing second nature.
• Communicate like a pro — keep everyone in the loop and feeling confident.

A Few Things About You:

• A full UK driving licence - travel across AO locations is essential
• Someone who loves building relationships and making things better
• A natural leader who brings out the best in people
• Calm under pressure, quick to adapt, and always ready to find a solution
• Positive, proactive, and full of ideas to keep us moving forward
