About the Role
As a Regional Estates Manager, you will ensure our estate supports operational needs across London and regional sites. Acting as the central point of coordination, you will work closely with customers, suppliers, and internal teams to ensure facilities services are delivered in line with requirements.
This relationship-led role requires understanding customer needs, maintaining strong partnerships, and engaging the right people at the right time. You will take ownership of issues by coordinating responses with facilities management providers, contractors, and stakeholders to drive resolution.

You will act as an escalation point for issues, bringing together the right expertise to maintain continuity of service.
Day to day, you will engage a wide range of stakeholders, contribute to governance forums, and provide clear updates on performance, risks, and priorities. You will also provide leadership to your team, supporting consistent delivery across the estate while ensuring services remain safe, compliant, and aligned to business needs.
Training and Development
We are committed to supporting your development as you build experience in estates management within a complex operational environment. You will receive a structured induction to the organisation, your team, and the estate you will be responsible for.
You will be supported by your line manager and colleagues to develop confidence in managing supplier relationships, navigating governance processes, and delivering through others. Access to training aligned to estates and safety practice will be provided, including working at height, water systems management, and health and safety.
Ongoing development will be shaped through experience and formal learning. You will build knowledge by working across a varied estate, engaging with stakeholders, and handling operational challenges. Opportunities to develop leadership capability are available, including leadership and management training, peer support, and learning from others across the estates community.
