- Maintain accurate people and space data for each site, including FTE numbers, recruitment forecasts, desk allocation, and usage trends.
- Identify and act on lease events, vacant or underused space, reallocating or consolidating space where necessary through data-driven decisions and stakeholder influence.
- Manage estate change projects from planning to implementation, ensuring business requirements are captured early and clearly communicated.
- Review and respond to estates requests, aligning them with Home Office strategy in collaboration with stakeholders and delivery partners.
- Collaborate with internal teams (e.g., FM, Fire Safety, Sustainability) and external suppliers to deliver estate solutions that support business goals and value for money.
- Support senior leadership with the development and delivery of the Home Office and wider government estates strategy, including managing 1–2 direct reports.
