Salary: £31,396 to £34,980 per annum, with placement according to qualifications and experience.
Hours: Full Time
Contract Type: Permanent
Placed On: 11th September 2024

Job Ref: EST379A

Estates and Facilities is looking to recruit an enthusiastic, motivated and dependable Assistant Facilities Manager to join our friendly team of staff who take great pride in providing high standards of service across the University estate. 

The post will initially be focussed on supporting the Cleaning Services team but with potential to develop and broaden out support into other areas of soft Facilities Management provision. 

Consisting of approximately 65 staff, the Cleaning Services team provides a range of cleaning and related services to the University community, ensuring that a clean, hygienic and safe environment is maintained for students, staff and visitors. The team also works closely with other Facilities Services teams, such as Portering and Security, to ensure our campuses function smoothly in terms of supporting an extensive range of day to day University activities.

The successful candidate will be a friendly, reliable and committed team player with a ‘can do’ approach to operational service delivery and reactive problem solving. 

Ideally, you will have professional hands-on experience and knowledge of modern cleaning techniques and/or a qualification in cleaning or facilities management (or be willing to commit to working towards these). Previous experience of working in the cleaning industry is essential.

You will be a confident, friendly and polite individual with excellent interpersonal skills, and be able to write and review cleaning schedules, service standards and undertake quality control inspections.

Demonstrable experience in managing a large and diverse team of staff with all associated HR activities is essential.

The post will be primarily based at our King’s College campus although the post holder will be expected to work at Foresterhill or in other locations as required in order to fulfil their duties.

A full UK driving would be desirable as travel between campuses will happen during late night and early morning when buses are not running. 

Salary will be at the appropriate point on Grade 5,  £31,396 - £34,980 per annum, with placement according to qualifications and experience.

Informal enquiries should be made to estates@abdn.ac.uk.
