Estates and Facilities Office Coordinator

Yeovil College is about to commit to the most exciting college-wide development in the UK. The investment and campus transition that is about to begin and conclude four years later through our ‘Big Build’ Project is a once in a lifetime opportunity and will be transformational for our town. It will accelerate and widen the impact of our work, in our mission to create life-changing opportunities for our community.

The Estates and Facilities Office Coordinator will be expected to deputise for the Estates and Facilities Manager (EFM) when necessary.

In addition to these responsibilities, you will be responsible for the 'customer-facing' service, ensuring that the interface between the wider College and the Estates and Facilities Department remains accessible, positive, supportive, and easy for customers to request support or information. This includes managing inquiries, feedback, and requests from both internal stakeholders and external parties. Furthermore, you will actively promote equality, diversity and Fundamental British Values in all aspects of the role.
