Building Facilities
Building Facilities Officers
Our remit
The Building Facilities Officers (BFOs) are the main point of contact for building-related support across the Whiteknights and London Road campuses. We work closely with Estates, contractors and project teams to communicate maintenance and improvement works, helping to minimise disruption and keep building users informed of activities that may affect teaching, learning and research.
Hours of work
Our core hours are:
- 08:30 to 16:00 Monday to Friday
Notify us
Please report any building related issues by submitting a request through the self-service helpdesk below.
Alternatively, you can contact your Building Facilities Officer (BFO) directly using the details at the bottom of this page to discuss any matter affecting your building.
