Tom Dean

I’m a senior estates and facilities professional with more than a decade of experience across education, hospitality and commercial property.

As Director of Capital, Estates and Facilities at Great Schools Trust, I lead the strategic management, development and performance of the Trust’s estate. My experience covers capital investment, building surveying, property due diligence, maintenance strategy, compliance, contract management and the resolution of complex property and construction matters.

Before joining Great Schools Trust, I spent five years as Director of Facilities at Northern Schools Trust, following senior property and maintenance roles within the hospitality sector. This combination of technical expertise and senior leadership experience has given me a practical understanding of buildings, alongside the commercial and strategic perspective needed to manage and develop a large and complex estate.
