About the Role

We’re looking for a proactive, hands‑on Facilities Manager to take ownership of the maintenance, safety and smooth running of Maersk’s largest UK warehouse. This is a fast‑paced, high‑volume logistics environment where your work directly supports operational excellence.

Working closely with our Central Team, site leadership and a range of contractors, you’ll be the go‑to expert for all things facilities, infrastructure and MHE.

Key Responsibilities

You will focus on the most critical areas of site performance, including:

• Oversee and coordinate daily maintenance of all warehouse facilities, equipment and infrastructure to ensure the site remains safe, secure and fully operational.
• Respond quickly to facility and equipment issues, including emergencies, and maintain accurate records of all actions taken.
• Support and deliver planned preventative maintenance (PPM) schedules to maximise uptime and compliance.
• Manage the MHE fleet, ensuring timely repairs, reducing damage and improving availability.
• Lead and supervise contractors on site, ensuring all legal, safety and compliance requirements are met.
• Manage all waste streams, working with contractors to ensure efficient and compliant waste handling.
• Coordinate internal teams and external partners to deliver facility‑related projects on time and to standard.
• Maintain strong documentation and reporting, supporting audits, safety reviews and operational planning.
• Carry out any additional duties required to support the safe and effective running of the facility.

What You’ll Bring

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Conscientious, responsible and committed to high standards
• Detail‑oriented with a strong results‑driven mindset
• An excellent communicator with strong written and record‑keeping skills
• Highly organised with strong problem‑solving and decision‑making ability
• Able to work under pressure and manage multiple priorities
• Confident using computer systems and databases

Experience in a warehouse, logistics or large‑scale industrial environment is highly advantageous.
