CAFM Director

Equans is looking for a CAFM Director to join the team on a permanent basis. This is a full-time role working 37.5 hours per week. On offer is a competitive salary, company vehicle or allowance, bonus and benefits package.

The UKMBU operates across 3 distinct divisions utilising 4 separate CAFM systems (MRI, Planon and two versions of IBMs Maximo). In 2025 the CAFM portfolio was reviewed and, through a market testing exercise a Salesforce CAFM has been selected for all the UK services activities across all Divisions. Between 2026 and 2028 we are progressing a One CAFM programme in parallel to a One ERP programme.

Having selected Salesforce as our proposed system for One CAFM going forward. In 2026 we are embarking on the design and gap analysis phase moving into build in the latter part of 2026 and throughout 2027. It is expected that the first contracts will move in late 2027 and then the final transition will be completed in 2028. The programme will represent the biggest transformation programme the UK will ever undergo. All our operating processes will be reviewed and where necessary, re-written. The objective of the project is to move to a single way of working on a single platform that our operational team will use for all processes (whether that be work order management, procurement, quotations or invoicing); the intent is that everything will be done from the CAFM. The system is also intended to provide users with the ability to customise their own local operating procedures and workflows to ensure that our customers continue to experience a bespoke service tailored to their requirements.

The programme is now looking for operationally experienced individuals to join the team which will be responsible for moving Equans to a more agile and streamline way of working.
