    • Strong experience within the facilities management industry.

    • Excellent commercial awareness, with demonstrable experience of managing a P&L.

    • The ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and create a high-performance culture.

    • Strong communication, stakeholder-management and customer-relationship skills.

    • A proactive approach to operational improvement, innovation and account development.

    Experience managing a national or mobile portfolio would be advantageous. A recognised health and safety qualification, such as NEBOSH or IOSH , would also be desirable.
