Are you looking to begin your career in Facilities Management or expand your existing FM skills in a new and dynamic environment? Do you want to make a meaningful contribution to your local community? If so, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

We’re currently seeking a Facilities Works Co-ordinator to join our Estates & Facilities Department at Surrey Police.

About the Role

As a Facilities Works Co-ordinator, you'll be part of our wider Facilities Service Delivery Team, responsible for delivering a range of planned and proactive building improvement projects. These include site refurbishments, redevelopments, and decommissioning works—all aimed at enhancing the built environment for our operational colleagues.

You will support Estates & Facilities-led projects across the Surrey estate, working closely with departmental teams in both Surrey and Sussex. This is a great opportunity to immerse yourself in the diverse world of soft FM service delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

• Coordinate and deliver building improvement and maintenance projects
• Work collaboratively with local teams across Sussex and Surrey
• Maintain high standards across police properties
• Contribute to a positive and safe working environment for all staff

Location & Mobility:

The role is primarily based at Surrey Police Headquarters (Mt Browne); however, the post holder will be required to travel regularly across the Surrey Police estate. A full UK driving licence is essential, and the successful candidate must be able to pass a Police driving assessment to be eligible to drive Fleet vehicles.

What We’re Looking For:

• Self-motivated and organised, with the ability to manage a busy and varied workload
• Able to adapt to changing priorities and respond quickly to emerging needs
• Strong communication skills, with a customer-focused approach
• A sense of ownership and pride in delivering high-quality work
• Commitment to maintaining and improving our facilities for all stakeholders

What We Offer:

We’re committed to investing in your career development. You’ll have access to a variety of training opportunities, including:

• FM-specific technical training
• Force and departmental courses tailored to your role

For a full list of responsibilities and requirements, please refer to the attached job description.

We are looking for candidates who can demonstrate the following skills, knowledge, and experience:

• Previous experience in a Facilities Management (FM) environment is desirable but not essential.
• Hands-on experience with minor maintenance tasks and building improvement projects, such as painting and decorating.
• Ability to work effectively both as part of a team and independently, with minimal supervision and remote line management.
• A willingness to undertake training to enhance your knowledge and develop new skills.
• Proven ability to contribute to team objectives while using your initiative to make informed, dynamic decisions that support organisational needs.
• A sound understanding of Health & Safety legislation and how it applies in the workplace.

Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications, including Outlook, Word, and Excel.

This is a unique opportunity to work in a dynamic public service environment, where you can develop new skills or build on your existing Facilities Management (FM) experience.
You’ll be part of a team that takes pride in supporting front-line policing through the effective delivery of essential services.

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary, with annual incremental increases within the salary band
• Career development and training opportunities to support your growth
• Membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme
• Generous annual leave entitlement
• Access to staff discount schemes
• Support for your financial and mental wellbeing
• Opportunities to join sports, social, and staff network groups
• A chance to work closely with and support front-line operational police officers
