Join Jewish Care’s Property Team and Help Shape the Spaces That Shape Lives

At Jewish Care, we are proud to support the vibrant lives of older people and the wider community across our 23 properties in the Southeast of England. We are now seeking an experienced Property Services Manager to help ensure our facilities remain safe, compliant, and well-maintained supporting the exceptional care and community we provide.

This is a mobile role, offering a unique opportunity to work across a dynamic portfolio of properties grouped in geographic hubs, including MVWC, BALC, Sandringham, and Redbridge. You will be key in maintaining the smooth operation of our buildings, engaging with stakeholders, managing contractors, and upholding standards across health & safety, compliance, and day-to-day maintenance.

This post is working 36.25 hours per week (Monday to Friday) and will require travel to other resources.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Leading property support across a designated hub of sites, working closely with Resource Managers to understand and meet operational needs
  • Ensuring statutory compliance and scheduled maintenance tasks are completed efficiently, and records are meticulously maintained
  • Managing minor repairs, maintenance contracts, and proactively identifying trends to support long-term planning
  • Overseeing minor project works from concept to completion—design, specification, tendering, and delivery
  • Conducting site inspections, audits, and supporting safety and regulatory compliance
  • Managing budgets effectively, ensuring resources are well allocated and value for money is achieved
  • Participating in the Property team’s out-of-hours emergency rota (1 week in every 6)

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience in facilities management, contractor supervision, and multi-site operations
  • Strong understanding of health & safety legislation, including RIDDOR, CDM, Asbestos regs, Gas Safety, and more
  • Experience working with CAFM systems and MS Office tools
  • A clean UK driving licence and flexibility to travel regularly across sites
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills—you’ll be liaising with a wide range of stakeholders
  • A proactive, ‘can-do’ mindset with the ability to assess situations and implement practical solutions quickly
  • IOSH or NEBOSH qualified (essential), with BIFM/IWFM Level 3 or willingness to work towards it

Desirable but Not Essential

  • Background in care environments or similar sectors
  • Experience in team management and/or overseeing construction/refurbishment projects
  • Knowledge of BMS systems and mechanical/electrical systems
  • “Built Environment” qualification or Fire Marshall trained

What We Offer

  • A meaningful role where your work directly supports high-quality care services
  • A collaborative, committed team in a well-established and respected organisation
  • Ongoing professional development and training
  • Participation in a supportive and values-driven workplace culture
