This role will be part of BAC’s Operations Team. It may be expected to contribute to a range of workstreams, but the role will primarily lead on all our building operations work as set out below.

General Description 

The Heritage Building & Facilities Manager will oversee the day-to-day building operations of Battersea Arts Centre. As a busy and vibrant arts, community and events space this role will be key in preserving and enhancing this iconic venue’s charm and atmosphere. This role will ensure this historic Grade II* listed RIBA award winning building, and its private road and community garden are maintained to the highest standards of safety, cleanliness, and functionality. As the Building Manager, you will drive our sustainability commitments through the development of innovative and environmentally conscious practices. We are seeking a Building Manager who is passionate about the care, upkeep and development of our venue to enhance the overall experience for both visitors and staff. This role alongside other Operational Managers will respond and oversee emergency call outs and may be called on out of hours as we are an operational building and open to the public.

The culture at BAC is a collaborative and open one. We work in an open plan space with no closed private offices and frequently work across teams and roles. We are lucky to have an outdoor terrace adjoined to the office which is particularly nice in the summer months. There’s a good culture of people taking lunch breaks away from desks and two equipped kitchen and eating areas where the team tend to spend their down time. We organise regular social events and things can get competitive at our annual sports day and Christmas quiz. Though to be clear, spectating is respected as much as taking part here at BAC!
