Facilities Manager – South & West London Looking for a role where no two days are the same? Where you can make a real impact on keeping a major transport operation running safely and smoothly? We’re looking for an experienced and proactive Facilities Manager to support our Head of Facilities in ensuring our depot network across South and West London operates safely, efficiently, and remains fully compliant. The Facilities Manager supports the Head of Facilities in the day-to-day operational management of hard and soft facilities services across a diverse portfolio of operational sites. This includes supporting the management of building fabric, building services, engineering workshops, operational plant, tools, and equipment, ensuring all assets required to support safe, reliable, and compliant bus operations are maintained, available, and fit for purpose. The role covers office and operational buildings, engineering workshops, external yards, vehicle parking areas, canteens, and remote satellite sites, while supporting the delivery of maintenance activities, asset upkeep, and infrastructure improvements aligned with operational requirements. A critical element of the role is supporting the delivery of full statutory compliance, safety assurance, operational readiness, and robust process governance, with business continuity at the core of all activities. This is a highly visible and hands-on operational role that requires regular travel between multiple sites across South and West London. One day you may be overseeing compliance activities at a busy engineering depot, the next managing contractors delivering projects, responding to operational issues, reviewing maintenance performance, or supporting investment and improvement programmes. The ability to effectively prioritise workloads, manage competing demands, and build strong relationships with depot management teams, contractors, and stakeholders is essential. Working closely with operational and engineering colleagues, you will help ensure facilities support the safe and reliable delivery of transport services, whilst driving high standards of maintenance, compliance, housekeeping, and customer service. You will also play a key role in managing reactive repairs, planned preventative maintenance programmes, contractor performance, and facilities-related projects from conception through to completion. The successful candidate will be comfortable working independently, making informed decisions, and balancing strategic priorities with day-to-day operational demands. A flexible approach is essential, as occasional attendance outside normal working hours may be required to support operational incidents, emergency repairs, or planned works. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy solving problems, and want to play a key role in maintaining critical transport infrastructure across London, we'd love to hear from you.
