British Library - Building Fabric Manager

The British Library

The British Library has an interesting and rewarding vacancy for a Building Fabric Manager within our Estates and Facilities Management department, based in our Grade 1 listed building at St Pancras. If you have construction management experience and are looking for a new challenge on the client side in a positive environment, you may be the person we are looking for to work on the building fabric maintenance of the Library’s two campuses, in London and Boston Spa. Building on existing strong construction management and communication skills, you will spend time identifying building defects and finding and implementing solutions. You will need to have a good understanding of both traditional and modern construction methods, and be confident in fault detection and diagnosis such as deterioration of brickwork and stonework, degradation of finishes to specialist joinery and plasterwork, cladding/roofing failure, structural movement and water ingress. Working collaboratively with other departments and our M&E/Fabric term contractor, your proactive approach to liaising with and managing both contractors and building/department access will help to deliver excellent customer service, which is flexible and adapts to the needs and sensitivities of staff and other building users. Above all, you will need to demonstrate a confident can-do attitude, and the ability to work adaptably and flexibly to make sure that the team as a whole are able to provide the best achievable service to our customers.
