National Maintenance Manager - up to £52,000 - remote working

Your new company

This is a unique opportunity to join a nationally recognised organisation with a strong social mission and a diverse property portfolio. The Estates team is undergoing a transformation, and you’ll be at the forefront of shaping how maintenance is delivered across the UK. With a hybrid working model, you’ll enjoy the flexibility of working from home while leading a high-performing team across multiple sites.

Your new role

As National Maintenance Manager, you will take full ownership of the maintenance function across the UK. You will lead a team of five Area Facilities Managers, each supported by a team of five tradespeople, delivering reactive and planned maintenance across approximately 90 properties.
You will be responsible for developing and delivering a forward-looking planned maintenance programme, ensuring statutory compliance, and embedding a modern, customer-focused approach to estates management. The role involves bi-weekly regional travel across Scotland/Northern Ireland, North, South West & Wales, South, and South East.
Key responsibilities include:
  • Leading the national maintenance function and driving strategic change
  • Managing reactive and planned maintenance, minor refurbishments, and compliance
  • Developing a three-year planned maintenance programme based on condition surveys
  • Overseeing budgets, procurement, and contractor performance
  • Ensuring health and safety and statutory compliance across all sites
  • Supporting refurbishment projects and contributing to capital planning
  • Promoting energy efficiency and sustainability
  • Acting as a senior leader within the Estates function, influencing strategy and service delivery

What you'll need to succeed

You will have proven experience leading large-scale maintenance operations across multiple sites, with strong stakeholder engagement and the ability to drive change.
You will be confident managing contractors, budgets, and compliance, and have a proactive, empathetic approach to leadership.
Desirable qualifications include RICS, CIBSE or equivalent, and a NEBOSH Certificate.
A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle are required.
Experience in the care or education sector is desirable.

What you'll get in return

This role offers a high level of autonomy and flexibility, with 80% homeworking and national influence. You’ll receive a competitive salary, car allowance, and benefits package, along with opportunities for professional development and leadership training. You’ll be part of a values-driven organisation committed to safety, compliance, and customer service.
