How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Job description

    Do you have experience managing science parks, business parks, commercial estates or mixed-use developments? Looking for a high-profile leadership role right on your doorstep?

    Managing this prestigious campus, you will take total ownership of a major local employment hub, ensuring it delivers a first-class customer experience for a diverse community of occupiers.

    If you are a seasoned property management professional based near Bedford, Northampton, or Milton Keynes, this is the perfect opportunity to step into a high-visibility role without the London commute.

    You will hold ultimate accountability for landlord operations, financial performance, and compliance across the site. This role blends hands-on estate management with strategic local marketing, community engagement, and commercial leadership.

    Key Responsibilities:

    Oversee day-to-day site operations, contractor performance, and hard/soft service delivery.
    Act as the face of the park, building proactive relationships with tenants to ensure unparalleled satisfaction.
    Take accountability for budget setting, forecasting, and reconciliation, alongside strict adherence to H&S legislation (ISO 14001/45001).
    Promote the park within the region, fostering strong relationships with the wider business and local community.

    This role is based onsite in the beautiful village of Sharnbrook, on the outskirts of Bedford, easily commutable from Milton Keynes, Northampton and surrounding areas.

    There is a competitive basic salary circa £70-75,000 along with excellent benefits package that includes private medical and dental cover, generous holiday entitlement and annual profit share bonus.

    What We Are Looking For:

    An authentic, team-minded leader, with exceptional communication skills
    Operational knowledge from science parks, business parks, retail estates, corporate hubs, or mixed-use developments.
    Strong background in managing multi-tenanted commercial properties or large-scale estates.
    Proven financial acumen with direct experience managing complex service charge budgets.
    IOSH certification is essential (NEBOSH is highly desirable).
    Membership in IWFM would be an added bonus
    Working knowledge of compliance and CAFM software (e.g., Riskwise).

    This is a rare opportunity to steer a premier life science hub. If you have a proactive, flexible attitude and a track record of elevating customer experience and operational efficiency, we want to hear from you. Apply today to shape the future of scientific innovation
