Facilities Manager

We have an opportunity for a well organised Facilities Manager to ensure our properties and facilities are compliant with relevant Health & Safety, Environmental, Fire & Security standards.

What it's like to work here:The role is across our portfolio of properties which include Glendurgan garden near Falmouth and Trerice House near Newquay. The base for this role will be at Trelissick which has one of the most amazing natural settings in the country. Situated on our own peninsula, we enjoy stunning, ever-changing views of the Fal estuary, this location is famous as a Cornish estate with 30 acres of garden, historic parkland and woodland with its miles of creek side and woodland walks. We’ve been open to visitors since the 1950’s when Trelissick was gifted to the National Trust, but since 2019 we’ve seen some big changes with our current Trelissick Transformation project. It is a great time to join the team and work together to deliver our big ambitions.

What you'll be doing:For us facilities aren’t a back office function, so you’ll be out and about inspecting our properties and keeping on top of our systems. As part of the property team you’ll report into the General Manager, and be accountable for the running of all aspects of facilities management across our properties, making sure we are safe and compliant.
