What skills and experience we're looking for

At North West Academies Trust, we believe that our school environments should be world-class, inspiring, and safe, allowing children and staff alike to thrive in and out of the classrooms.

We are seeking to appoint a well-qualified, ambitious and committed Estates and Health & Safety Manager who will join the Trust at a very exciting stage. We have already completed extensive building project work at Rudheath Senior Academy, Grosvenor Park CofE Academy and Ellesmere Primary School amongst others.

The job now is to build on those successes, secure new opportunities, and ensure the estate is maintained well across all schools within the Trust.

The purpose of this role is to lead the implementation of an estates strategy and to manage all aspects of the Trust’s properties upkeep, care, maintenance, security, health and safety and facilities management in line with statutory and regulatory requirements. Additionally, the postholder will work to maintain refurbishments and other building projects in terms of development and procurement and to act as the Trust representative with suppliers to the estate, professional advisors (buildings) and contractors.

Critical to this role will be for the Estates and Health & Safety Manager to coordinate and lead the Trust and schools in their buildings, securing a thorough understanding of the new build systems and how to secure best management practice of the estate.

You will be an expert in health and safety legislation and practice, and have extensive knowledge of good estate management, with excellent proficiency in written and verbal communication and the ability to work with a range of stakeholders, including external authorities/bodies, headteachers, business managers and caretakers alike.
