Heritage is for everybody, and we are here for heritage.
Heritage lives in places and people, memories and stories, artefacts and traditions. It can connect us all to the past, and to each other. It can make us happier, strengthen every community, and help shape society for the better. Everybody should be able to enjoy the benefits it brings.
That's why, as a charity, we care for over a million objects and hundreds of historic sites in every part of England, from international icons to local treasures. And it's why we open them up, share their stories and find new ways for everybody to enjoy, learn, play and create.
We are looking for a Building Conservation Manager to join our team. The role is full time (36 hours per week) and permanent.
Do you have a passion for historic buildings and environments? Do you have a strong understanding of the emerging threats and opportunities within the heritage sector? Do you have proven experience of delivering building conservation schemes in complex historic environments? Are you ready to play a key role to ensure the care, repair, and enhancement of the National Collection of historic sites and monuments in the North of England?
English Heritage seeks a highly motivated heritage professional who could be from an Architecture / Building Conservation / Surveying background (or similar) to take up the role of Building Conservation Manager in the Estates team based in the North of England. You will principally cover English Heritage properties in Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria, but may be required to work in other areas such as Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, and Derbyshire. You will be allocated an office base in York where you will be required to attend on occasion for meetings, can work from that office permanently, if desired, but homeworking is also supported. You will be required to undertake regular site visits across the region (some sites having office space available).
As Building Conservation Manager you will be responsible for properties ranging from country houses to ruined castles, abbeys and roman structures, as well as modern visitor centres. Guided by the principles and aims set out in our Sustainable Conservation Asset Management Plan, your primary aim will be to address the repair priorities highlighted in condition surveys that are needed to bring the historic sites into sustainable conservation and ensure planned and reactive maintenance schedules keep the assets at that level.
To do this the role requires strong project/contract management skills and a working understanding of health and safety regulations in a construction environment (CDM Regulations etc.). It also requires competence in operating within the constraints of heritage and planning policies and statutory requirements, as well as being able to demonstrate a robust understanding of historic building conservation best practice principles.
A Building Conservation Manager will be a person who is an effective written and verbal communicator, able to excel in forging positive relationships with both internal colleagues (Curatorial, Collections, Operations, Experience and Engagement, Health, Safety & Security Manager etc.) and external stakeholders (Historic England, UNESCO etc.), sometimes in challenging situations.
A key aspect of the role will be to support your team to get the best out of contractors, ensuring all work is carried out in accordance with English Heritage Trust's standards and policies. To support your team's work, you will identify when consultant support is required, work with the Estate Manager/Senior Estate Manager to procure and manage specialist services via a Shared Services Agreement from Historic England and appoint any other external specialists that might be required.
Regular site visits are required for the role and due to the geographical spread and nature of some of the sites in the region you will be required to drive, and therefore you must hold a valid driving licence for the UK. Occasional overnight stays in hotels covered by expenses will likely be required.
You will be a dynamic heritage professional who can react to the needs of a complex estate of multi-phased building and place types, and who can both balance and prioritise workload.
To be considered as a Building Conservation Manager, you will need:
- Minimum HND or NVQ Level 4 or equivalent in a building/construction re...
