Facilities Project Management
Facilities in Project Management

A growing area in project management; Arras People has seen an increase in facilities management related projects and programmes over the last few years. New builds in both the public and private sector has seen an increased demand for facilities managers with specific experience in project managing - especially managing the commercial and contractual agreements, managing the budgets and ensuring new processes, procedures & systems are in place for an organisations new build. Continued regeneration and refurbishment - again across most sectors - has seen an increased demand for resources with the specific experience of managing special projects. We've seen refurbishment programmes > £100M to > £1M retail fitouts - all demanding good project management capability to bring the project in under strict timescales and budgets.
Arras has worked with a range of organisations and attracts candidates with significant FM experience to manage programmes and projects through to successful completion.
