Role
Purpose The Resource Manager is a critical operational role within the Property Delivery function, reporting directly to the Head of Operations – Property Delivery. The role is responsible for the day-to-day allocation and optimisation of property delivery resources – including surveyors, facilities managers and other property delivery staff – across the UK portfolio. The Resource Manager acts as the connective tissue between the central Property Delivery function and the client-facing teams, ensuring that resource allocation is aligned to budget, contractual requirements and client expectations. The role manages a complex mix of dedicated and split allocation resources across multiple clients, and plays a central part in enabling the consistent, high-quality service delivery that underpins the Property Delivery strategy.
Key Responsibilities
Resource Allocation and Deployment Manage the day-to-day allocation of surveyors, facilities managers and other property delivery staff across the UK portfolio, maintaining an accurate and up-to-date resourcing model at all times. Administer and optimise the allocation of both dedicated resources (aligned to a single client) and split allocation resources ( i.e. those shared across multiple clients), ensuring appropriate coverage and workload balance. Work closely with Property Delivery Leads and Senior Directors to understand resourcing requirements across client accounts and deploy resources accordingly. Maintain a clear view of capacity across all property delivery teams, identifying pressure points, gaps and over-allocation proactively and escalating where necessary. Budget and Financial Alignment Ensure all resource allocations are aligned to agreed client budgets and fee structures, supporting the accurate recovery of costs and fees across the portfolio. Work with the Head of Operations and finance colleagues to reconcile resource deployment
