The income streams are: Licence rooms to appropriate community business users (CBUs) and keep them happy: service their needs, ensure correct and timely payment and get feedback. This entails putting in place systems to welcome them, taking their money, undertaking light works such as ensuring desks, lighting, wifi or locks are provided.

This entails close liaison in advance with external organisers of events at Fairfield House, and meeting the need for sensitive and sometimes firm management on the day. Knowledge, Skills and Experience This role requires a willing, practical and problem-solving person, with strong people and communications skills, very organised, able to work confidently with people of different cultures and ethnicities. A degree of commercial awareness is important. It’s essential to work closely and harmoniously with BEMSCA which is the longstanding user of Fairfield House. What does success look like?
