You’ll:
- Investigate damp, mould and disrepair issues and identify practical solutions
- Carry out inspections in occupied and empty properties
- Prepare schedules of work and repair specifications
- Oversee repair works, minor improvements and planned maintenance projects
- Assess and support the management of disrepair cases
- Monitor contractors and ensure quality standards are met
- Carry out health and safety inspections
- Work closely with residents to deliver a positive customer experience
- Support and develop colleagues while helping drive service improvements
What We’re Looking For
We’re keen to hear from people with experience in repairs, maintenance, construction, surveying or a similar property-related environment.
You’ll ideally have:
- Strong knowledge of property repairs and building maintenance
- Experience identifying defects and finding practical solutions
- Good understanding of health and safety requirements
- The ability to manage multiple jobs and priorities
- Confidence working with contractors, customers and colleagues
- A proactive approach and a commitment to quality workmanship
