FM Business Partner, Salary up to £45,500, Norwich, Permanent

Your new company

We're pleased to be partnering with the Norwich Bioscience Institutes Partnership (NBIP) who have an exciting opportunity for an FM Business Partner to join their professional and dedicated Facilities department.


The Norwich Bioscience Institutes support a cluster of world-leading research organisations tackling some of the most critical challenges of our time — from sustainable food production to healthy ageing and environmental resilience. NBIP provides high-quality, non-scientific support services to the staff, students, and visitors of the John Innes Centre, The Sainsbury Laboratory, Earlham Institute, and Quadram Institute Bioscience, as well as to the Partnership itself.


Located on the stunning Norwich Research Park, you’ll be part of a collaborative and welcoming team, with access to excellent employee benefits including a competitive salary, generous annual leave, a defined contribution pension scheme, and outstanding recreational facilities.

Your new role

This is a newly created role designed to launch a fresh approach to facilities management at NBIP. As FM Business Partner, you will be the key link between the Facilities Management team, the helpdesk, and internal stakeholders across the Institutes. Your mission: to ensure FM services are responsive, agile, and aligned with the strategic goals of our scientific community.


You will lead on service planning, workplace audits, performance monitoring, and stakeholder engagement, helping to shape a more integrated and customer-focused FM service. You’ll also deputise for the Facilities Hub Manager when required.
This is a varied and engaging role, ideal for someone who thrives on building relationships, improving service delivery, and ensuring compliance in a complex and dynamic environment.

What you'll need to succeed

We’re looking for a confident and experienced facilities professional with a strong background in hard services and stakeholder engagement. You will bring:

• Proven experience in contract management and performance monitoring
• Strong working knowledge of the Building Safety Act 2023, fire and building regulations, and statutory compliance (e.g., PUWER, LOLER)
• Familiarity with permitting systems and contractor management protocols
• Proficiency in business systems software (e.g., CAFM systems)
• A customer-focused mindset and excellent communication skills

What you'll get in return

• Salary up to £45,500
• 25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays + 2.5 privilege days
• Work in a collaborative, inclusive, and forward-thinking environment
• Be part of a team that supports globally impactful science
• Enjoy a competitive salary and generous benefits package
• Access excellent recreational and wellbeing facilities
• Make a real difference in a role that’s both strategic and hands-on
• Contributory pension scheme with 10% employer contribution
• Onsite childcare available
• Free car parking available onsite
• A wide range of training and development opportunities
