Head of Property and Facilities - in reality a Property Services Manager
London | Hybrid (3 days in office)
My client, a well-established military charity, is seeking a Head of Property and Facilities to lead the day-to-day management and assurance of its property portfolio, supporting beneficiaries across the UK.
This is a hands-on role suited to an experienced property professional who enjoys balancing operational delivery, compliance, and professional judgement, within a small, collaborative team.
The Role
Reporting to a senior director, you will provide professional oversight of the charity’s property and facilities portfolio, ensuring properties are safe, compliant, well maintained, and cost-effective.
Key responsibilities include:
*
Overseeing the charity’s property portfolio, including maintenance planning, cost control, quality assurance, and statutory compliance
*
Developing and delivering annual maintenance plans and budgets
*
Advising on the application of property, landlord, and health & safety legislation
*
Procuring and managing external surveyors, contractors, and service providers
*
Acting as a professional point of escalation for property-related issues and queries
*
Working closely with operational teams to ensure beneficiaries are appropriately supported
*
Providing clear, professional advice and reporting to senior stakeholders as required
*
Managing a small property team and coordinating external resources
This role is not a corporate estates director position; it is a senior operational leadership role with meaningful responsibility and visibility.
About You
You are likely to have:
*
Significant experience in property management, estates, facilities, or housing
*
Strong working knowledge of statutory compliance, health & safety, and building maintenance
*
Experience managing contractors, consultants, and service contracts
*
Confidence advising senior stakeholders on property matters
*
A practical, organised, and solutions-focused approach
Professional membership (e.g. RICS, Propertymark or equivalent) and health & safety qualifications are desirable but not essential if you bring strong relevant experience.
Why Apply?
*
Senior, respected role within a mission-driven military charity
*
Broad exposure across property, facilities, compliance, and stakeholder engagement
*
Sensible scope, supportive leadership, and realistic expectations
*
Hybrid working and strong organisational values
