Director of Estates, Facilities and Commercial Services Competitive salary level plus excellent benefitsThe University of Sussex is seeking to appoint its next Director of Estates, Facilities and Commercial Services.
The first of the new wave of UK universities founded in the 1960s, Sussex received its Royal Charter in 1961 and immediately set about offering an alternative to the traditional higher education landscape. From the very start, Sussex was intended to be a new kind of university: challenging convention and fostering critical thinking. Today, our courses, research and culture aim to stimulate, excite, and challenge. From scientific discovery to global policy, from student welfare to career development, Sussex innovates and takes a lead.
Now in our 63rd year, we have established a global reputation. We are ranked 31st in the UK and joint 246th overall in the latest QS World University Rankings 2025, with 10 subjects listed within the UK top 20 QS World University Rankings by Subject 2024 and Development Studies ranked first in the world for the eight consecutive year, reflecting the radically global orientation of our research and education. Given our strong institutional commitment to environmental sustainability, we are also very pleased to be recognised as the 8th most sustainable university in the UK in the QS World University Rankings 2025 and joint 26th in the world for Sustainability.
