Assistant Facilities Manager (AFM)
Location: North Essex / East Anglia (regional portfolio)
Salary: £30,000 - £35,000 + £3,600 Car Allowance + Benefits
About the Opportunity
An excellent opportunity has arisen for an Assistant Facilities Manager to join a leading UK property and asset management consultancy renowned for overseeing high-quality commercial estates and delivering exceptional client service.
In this role, you'll support an experienced Facilities Manager and Associate Director across a diverse portfolio within North Essex and into East Anglia, including commercial buildings, retail parks, and industrial estates.
This is the perfect position for someone who wants hands-on exposure, real responsibility, and a clear path to managing their own portfolio. Due to maternity cover needs and ongoing portfolio changes, progression opportunities arise frequently-ideal for someone ambitious and looking to step up.

* Assist with contractor management, site inspections, compliance checks, and H&S activities.
* Build strong relationships with occupiers, landlords, and service providers.
* Respond to FM queries, coordinate reactive maintenance, and ensure service delivery standards are met.
* Support budgeting, reporting, and tender processes.
* After an initial period of assisting, take responsibility for your own portfolio as opportunities open.
About You
* Some experience in facilities management-either in an AFM role or FM admin/coordinator capacity.
* Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage tasks across multiple sites.
* Confident communicator, able to work closely with tenants, contractors, and senior FM colleagues.
* A proactive attitude and desire to grow into full portfolio management.
* Full UK driving licence (car allowance provided).
What's on Offer
* £30,000-£35,000 salary
* £3,600 annual car allowance
* 25 days holiday + additional benefits
* Exposure to a wide range of assets and the opportunity to step into full FM responsibility
* Joining a reputable, people-focused property consultancy with a strong regional presence
If you're looking for the next step in your FM career and want a role where progression is built in, this is an excellent opportunity to develop, learn, and grow in a supportive and respected organisation.
