Progression in facilities management can vary depending on factors such as the size of the organisation, the industry, individual performance and personal career goals. Some of the progression paths that facilities management can open up include specialist roles, team leader or supervisor, senior facilities director or head of facilities in some really large organisations. The highest level of progression is the facilities executive or chief facilities officer who may be responsible for the overall management and strategic planning of all facilities within the organisation. Career progression in facilities management could mean transitioning to other industries such as education or management consultancy as well as entrepreneurship – the path can be what you choose to make it.
