We are looking to appoint an experienced Estates Manager to take on day to day management and drive a programme of improvements at Cobham Hall.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Estates Manager to offer strategic direction to the School’s senior team and to produce asset management and development plans for our estate. You will lead the Estates team, and manage programmes of maintenance, repair and improvement of all aspects of the buildings and grounds. With a recognised qualification in Estates Management being an advantage alongside excellent people skills, you must have a sound financial and commercial approach to the care and maintenance of our largely historic buildings and assets.

Why choose Cobham Hall?

Cobham Hall is housed in a beautiful Grade 1 listed Tudor mansion built in 1584 and was at one stage home to the Ashes of cricketing folklore. The School is otherwise set in 150 acres of tranquil 18th Century park landscape in the pretty village of Cobham in Kent. The School is within half an hour of central London via the High Speed train service from Ebbsfleet International to London St Pancras and within an hour of the Channel ports of Dover and Folkestone by car. Cobham Hall was founded in 1962. It is a member of the Round Square network of schools and indeed when it became a member back in 1971 was, at the time, the first all-girls’ school to join the network. Our small class sizes ensure that each student is supported on their educational journey and enables lessons to be dynamic and engaging.
