  • Ensure all environments (office, warehouse, storage) are optimised, efficient, and fit for purpose
  • Take a hands-on approach to resolving operational issues quickly and effectively
  • Lead on health & safety and regulatory compliance, including: MHRA and GDP standards, Fire safety, legionella, and electrical compliance
  • Manage audits, inspections, and risk assessments, ensuring full regulatory adherence
  • Own and manage estates and facilities budgets, tracking spend and identifying cost efficiencies
  • Ensure all suppliers and contractors deliver against SLAs and KPIs, driving value for money
  • Build strong relationships across internal teams and act as a trusted advisor to leadership on estates strategy and operational performance

What do you need?
  • 5-10+ years’ experience in a senior estates, facilities, or property management role
  • Strong expertise in commercial property, leases, rent reviews, and service charges
  • Proven experience managing landlord relationships and supplier contracts
  • Solid understanding of health & safety and compliance frameworks
  • Experience in regulated environments (pharma, healthcare, life sciences, or similar) is highly desirable
  • Ability to travel between our Winnersh and London sites
  • Strong financial and commercial acumen, with experience managing budgets and delivering efficiencies
  • Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and negotiation skills
  • IOSH / NEBOSH (or equivalent) desirable
  • A hands-on, proactive mindset with the ability to operate both strategically and operationally

What we offer:
  • Generous Leave: 25 days holiday (rising to 27 after year one and 30 after year two) + 8 bank holidays
  • Pension Matching: Up to 5% employer matching contributions
