Fancy breaking the mould?

Wolfson College breaks the mould when it comes to Oxbridge.

As one of the newer colleges and one of the largest graduate universities, they have a very modern approach. When it comes to their estate, it doesn t stop there. Situated on a 50-year-old Grade 2 listed site, they've been doing impressive things.

While some organisations have net-zero targets that may seem unrealistic or poorly planned, Wolfson College is almost there already and has taken the leap by completing several landmark sustainable projects. These projects include replacing 1000 single-glazed windows and, in a pioneering project, replacing all original gas boilers with CO2 heat pumps. This impressive project was the largest to be retrofitted on an estate of this complexity.

And it doesn't stop there; there are more projects planned, and you'll play a significant role in their successful delivery.

Working alongside the Domestic Bursar, you'll take the lead in managing the in-house maintenance team of four, supporting capital projects, and ensuring statutory compliance. Due to the nature of the work, you will have experience in managing hard services facilities teams and a track record in maintenance.

Situated to the north of Oxford with views of the River Cherwell, you'll avoid the traffic of central Oxford, with your own parking space. Additionally, you'll enjoy 31 days of holiday, plus bank holidays, a complimentary lunch, flexibility around hours, and access to the fantastic USS pension plan, contributing approximately 21%. This role offers not only immediate rewards but also long-term benefits.
