Executive Summary Welcome to the University of Oxford. We aim to lead the world in research and education for the benefit of society both in the UK and globally. Oxford’s researchers collaborate with academic, commercial and cultural partners across the globe to drive high-quality research and foster innovation with wide-reaching social, policy and economic impact. We believe our strength lies in empowering individuals and teams to tackle fundamental questions of global importance, while providing all our staff with a welcoming and inclusive workplace that enables everyone to thrive. Recognising that diversity is essential for innovation and creativity, we are committed to building a truly diverse community that values and respects each individual’s unique contribution. While rooted in centuries of scholarship, Oxford is also forward- looking, creative and cutting-edge. As one of Europe’s most entrepreneurial universities, we lead the UK in university spin-outs and are recognised for our support of social enterprise. The University’s estate is integral to our academic mission and contributes to Oxford’s reputation as a city of learning, heritage and culture. Our buildings form a vital part of the city’s architectural landscape and provide an inspiring environment for students, staff, and visitors alike. Oxford’s Minor Capital Plan (MCP) is a dynamic programme of over 250 projects, with an annual budget exceeding £30 million and individual project values ranging from £100k to £15m. These projects span the University’s diverse estate, including central Oxford, the Science Area, Old Road Campus, and NHS Trust sites, delivering everything from office refurbishments to complex research facilities.

You will lead a cross-divisional portfolio of projects valued between £100k and £2m, ensuring they are delivered efficiently, on time, and in accordance with statutory requirements and University governance. Acting as the client representative, you will manage project and design teams, liaise with stakeholders, and oversee all stages of project delivery—from initial briefing to post-completion. Join us and become part of a unique, democratic and international community. You’ll benefit from a wide range of staff perks and access to Oxford’s vibrant cultural life, all within one of the world’s most beautiful and historic cities. Trevor Payne Director of Estates
