Main duties of the job

The purpose of this position is to provide a comprehensive information management, reporting and analysis service across Estates, Facilities and PFI services.

Job description

The role will be responsible for the effective management, maintenance and development of Estates and Facilities information, records and associated document libraries, including the estates drawing library.

• The postholder will provide oversight of open, overdue and long-standing communications, maintain a clear and auditable record of their status, and ensure that matters are brought to the attention of the appropriate operational, technical, contractual or legal lead where action or escalation is required. Accountability for resolving the underlying matter will remain with the relevant responsible lead.
