• Conduct options appraisals and value-for-money assessments to support strategic investment decisions.
• Develop implementation roadmaps to deliver estate transformation programmes.
• Ensure property and facilities services are aligned to future organisational needs.
• Support compliant procurement and delivery approaches for future estate requirements.

• Strong knowledge of strategic asset management and property portfolio planning.
• Experience working with government property frameworks, controls, or similar regulated environments.
• Excellent stakeholder engagement and influencing skills.
• Strong analytical and financial appraisal capabilities.
• Experience translating organisational operating models into practical estate solutions.
• The ability to balance strategic vision with delivery-focused execution.
