**Primary Purpose**:In support of the continued development of the shared services and strategic business advisor model, the Manager, Facilities Advisory Services leads the team of Facilities Strategic Business Advisors (SBAs) at Usask, focused on the University Plan 2025 in being the _university the world needs (nīkānītān manācihitowinihk; ni manachīhitoonaan)_.

**Nature of Work**:The Manager, Facilities Advisory Services leads the Facilities SBA team in the Shared Services portfolio, while supporting the Associate Vice President, Services leadership team, which includes facilities management, protective services, procurement and transportation, consumer services, and planning, design and construction (PDC).

A member of the AVP Service’s leadership team, the manager will work collaboratively with and take collective direction from the director team in the Facilities and PDC centres of expertise.
