Job Description

Salary: £50,000 | Full-time, Permanent, Days

Our client, a well-established engineering business with sites in Oldham and Sheffield, is looking for an experienced Facilities Manager to take ownership of both locations — keeping buildings, plant, utilities and contractors running safely, compliantly and efficiently in support of a busy engineering and production operation.

This is a hands-on, high-visibility role reporting directly to the Production Director, ideal for someone who's as comfortable managing a PPM schedule as they are negotiating a contractor SLA or standing in front of an auditor. 

The role is worked on regular days, Monday to Friday.

About the business:

Their goal is excellence in engineering and exceeding customer expectations, built on values that guide everything they do: safety, quality, integrity, honesty and teamwork.

What you'll be doing

Managing the day-to-day running of our offices, workshops and storage areas across both sites

Overseeing planned preventative maintenance and reactive maintenance for buildings, plant and equipment

Keeping site utilities — power, water, HVAC, compressed air — reliable, compliant and cost-effective

Leading on refurbishments, space planning and site improvement projects

Carrying out site inspections, audits and risk assessments

Managing permits, certifications, statutory inspections and compliance documentation

Acting as the go-to person for facilities-related safety matters and emergency response

Sourcing, appointing and managing contractors and service providers, including negotiating contracts and SLAs

Making sure contractor work is delivered safely, on time and to spec

Monitoring facilities budgets and finding opportunities for savings and efficiency

Keeping accurate records of assets, maintenance and compliance

Supporting equipment installs, relocations and decommissioning

Working closely with engineering, production and IT to keep operations running smoothly

What we're looking for

Proven facilities management experience, ideally within engineering or manufacturing

Solid working knowledge of building systems, maintenance practices and UK Health & Safety legislation

Experience managing contractors, suppliers and service providers

A relevant facilities management qualification (e.g. IWFM, NEBOSH or equivalent)

Strong organisational and problem-solving skills, with real attention to detail

Confident communicator who can manage stakeholders at all levels

Commercially minded and cost-conscious

Awareness of environmental management and sustainability practices

Based on-site with regular travel between Oldham and Sheffield, and willing to provide occasional out-of-hours support for emergencies or planned works when required

What's on offer

£50,000 salary

Regular days, Monday to Friday

Excellent company pension (5% employee / 10% employer).

Permanent Position
