sites remain audit-ready.
* Develop and maintain reporting tools and dashboards to monitor compliance performance and provide regular insights to
governance forums.
* Verify compliance for operational equipment (including MHE) and ensure adherence to statutory requirements such as LOLER,
PUWER, and PSSR.
* Support assurance activities for new projects and change initiatives, validating that new assets are properly commissioned and
compliant.
About You
We’d love you to have the following skills and experience, but please apply if you think you’d be able to perform well in this
role!
* A comprehensive grasp of FM compliance, industry best practices, and legal mandates, with the capacity to implement these
operationally to improve performance.

* Solid knowledge of facilities management operations, contractor management, and commercial contract management.
