Head of Property Relocation and Workplace 18 Month FTC

Amnesty International UK (AIUK) has a simple aim: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, fairness, freedom and truth wherever they are denied. If you want to use your skills, knowledge, and experience to be successful in this role, you could be our new Head of Property Relocation and Workplace.

About the role

An exciting new opportunity has arisen to deliver a crucial workplace project in AIUK's evolution, as we seek to maximise value from a building with a large footprint and relocate to a new workplace that better suits our future needs.

The Head of Property Relocation and Workplace will oversee and drive the process of the sale and wind-down of our current building and spearhead the transition to a new workspace. Support and oversight will also be provided by this position as needed to our other workplaces.

You will have responsibility for developing and implementing a comprehensive project plan that mitigates project risks effectively. Throughout the process you will engage our staff and stakeholders to ensure a seamless transition and buy-in for the change journey.

• You can apply your knowledge of contract law to complex property transactions

• You collaborate and positively contribute to an inclusive culture
