Driving continuous improvement across the Building Safety function and ensuring compliance with current legislation.
About You
You'll ideally have:
Experience in building compliance within social housing, local government or a similar property environment.
Strong knowledge of fire safety legislation, with water hygiene and asbestos experience desirable.
A good understanding of the Building Safety Act, Fire Safety legislation and Higher-Risk Buildings.
Experience managing contractors and delivering compliance programmes.
A relevant surveying, construction or building maintenance qualification (or equivalent experience).
A full UK driving licence.
Why Apply?
Join a growing organisation with genuine opportunities to develop your career.
Be part of a collaborative, supportive team where your work directly improves resident safety.
Enjoy hybrid and flexible working with travel across Surrey and surrounding areas.
Receive an excellent benefits package including:
Annual salary reviews, up to 10% employer pension contribution, life insurance and 27 days' holiday plus bank holidays.
Hybrid working, holiday buy/sell scheme and the option to work abroad for up to one month (role dependent).
Cycle to Work, retail, gym and cinema discounts, plus role-specific benefits.
Health cash plan, virtual GP, Employee Assistance Programme, enhanced sick pay and wellbeing support.
Enhanced family leave, professional development, paid memberships and qualification sponsorship.
