Make a difference as a Facilities Manager

Our Facilities team is the force behind ensuring all our centres are equipped with everything they need to deliver safe, exciting and fun adventures to all!

Leading a team of Facilities Operatives and Housekeepers, and managing on-site contractors, you’ll oversee effective maintenance, repair, and overall operations of our buildings, grounds, activity bases and assets. You’ll report directly to the Regional Facilities Manager and work collaboratively to ensure a high-quality, fun and safe guest experience for all. This would include overseeing safety and maintenance, handling incidents or breakdowns, implementing facilities management policies and line management of your team.

Is this you?

• Experience of hard and soft facilities management and risk management
• Strong organisational and management skills, able to prioritise and deliver in time pressured environments.
• A confident leader of people, with previous experience in line-management.
• Knowledge of mechanical/electrical engineering and/or qualifications is a bonus, but not essential. Full driving licence and happy to travel across the region on an ad hoc basis

Above all, it’s our core values of FUN, SAFETY, QUALITY, INCLUSIVITY, TEAMWORK and RESPECT that unite us.

A place to thrive

No matter your background, ethnicity, age, neurodivergence or anything else … PGL is a place to be yourself, have fun, use your valuable skills for good and celebrate what makes you brilliantly unique.

Fair pay and benefits for all

• On top of your 25 days annual leave (+ 8 bank holidays), you’ll also enjoy your birthday off, have paid volunteering days to help worthwhile causes and the option to purchase additional holiday.
• A career with ongoing growth, aided development, mentoring, multiple pathways and opportunities to work across different UK or French locations.

We hire the best talent and value a diverse, inclusive team; so, we are dedicated to ensuring our application process is accessible to everyone and are happy to provide helpful adjustments to make it easier to complete. Simply email or call us with detail around the adjustments you need. However, our top priority is the safety of the guests on our centres. Therefore, all centre based employees and some specific Head Office employees must undergo an Enhanced criminal record check (known as DBS or PVG), which we pay for. You will need to provide a 5-year address history and ID (such as passport/birth certificate). Convictions related to violence, drugs, or safeguarding may affect your application. Not all convictions will disqualify you, as we assess each case individually.
