Summary

The Government Property Agency is changing the way the Civil Service works and is at the forefront of Government's transformation agenda; reshaping the relationship civil servants have with their place of work. The Agency is central to the delivery of key Government policies including moving 22,000 Civil Service roles out of London by 2030 and tackling climate change by contributing to the Net Zero agenda. To do this we are delivering a major change programme across the UK and consolidating our portfolio in order to save £1.4 Bn over 10 years.

Beyond the bricks and mortar, the GPA is about providing great workplaces for our people. Through programmes like Hubs, Whitehall Campus and Smart Working you will be in the vanguard of creating model working environments and promoting flexible working practices.

This is an ambitious and exciting task, for which we need innovative people, with strong commercial acumen, who are passionate about visualising and implementing customer needs. Launched as an Executive Agency of the Cabinet Office in 2018, we’re a relatively new department and we are growing fast so we also need people who thrive in ambiguity, can adapt quickly to change and are comfortable stepping outside of their remit to drive outcomes.

The GPA is committed to representing the communities we serve by making Diversity, Equality and Inclusion part of everything we do.

To ensure that we are always recruiting and retaining a diverse mix of talent, we are particularly inviting applications from candidates who are disabled, ethnically or gender diverse, and people who identify as being part of the LGBTQ+ community.

The role involves working with the team to implement strategic direction and GPA Agendas, ensuring the financial viability of the GPA and enabling the GPA to fulfil its mission and objectives.

Through the effective delivery of asset planning the principal purpose of the role is to provide both Landlord Services, ensuring internal leases are in place for the accurate recovery of costs and maximisation of income from our customers, and Occupier

Management, to mitigate Head Lease liabilities and reduce cost.

  • Building and managing relationships with stakeholders and business representatives at peer level and above to understand and assist with development of requirements
  • Management of the GPA Managed Service Provider (MSP) to provide the effective delivery of Property Management Services
