Looking after a building is a full-time job, but most small organisations don't have anyone whose job it is. Compliance records fall behind, repairs get paid for at whatever the first quote says, and small problems turn into expensive ones.
Premises Partner gives you an experienced estates manager on a part-time basis. I'll help you understand what you need to do, plan what's coming, and get the work done properly at a fair price.
Why Premises Partner
I'm a practising Estates and Facilities Manager with 10 years' experience across public and private sector property. I currently manage compliance, maintenance and capital projects across a group of 13 schools, so I know what good estates management looks like when it's done properly.
I understand tight budgets. Public sector funding is limited, and I've spent years making every pound count. I plan maintenance around long-term cost, not just the cheapest quote.
I know good contractors. I work with competent, insured and properly vetted contractors, and I challenge pricing and specifications on your behalf.
I speak both languages. I've worked in the private sector and the public sector, so I understand commercial pressures and public accountability.
Plain English. No jargon, no upselling, and no work recommended that you don't need.

Monthly compliance and maintenance coordination
Managed small projects up to £25,000, such as fencing, boundaries, hardstanding and minor refurbishments
