Job Description
Contracts Manager – Responsive Maintenance (Damp & Mould + FRA)
We’re recruiting an experienced Contracts Manager to join a well-established main contractor delivering responsive maintenance services across South East London and North Kent. This is a key leadership role overseeing two long-term frameworks, each with a 4-year duration, offering stability, autonomy, and genuine career progression.
The Role
Reporting directly to the Operations Director, you will take full operational responsibility for two contracts:
* A Damp & Mould remediation programme
* A Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) works contract
Each contract services approximately 1,200 properties per year, requiring strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple workstreams effectively.
You’ll lead a team of 5 direct staff, while coordinating a trusted and established supply chain of operatives to deliver high-quality, compliant works. This role demands a balance of commercial awareness, operational oversight, and people leadership.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Managing day-to-day delivery across both contracts, ensuring KPIs and SLAs are consistently met
* Reporting performance, risks, and progress to the Operations Director
* Leading, mentoring, and developing your direct team
* Overseeing subcontractor performance and maintaining strong supply chain relationships
* Driving quality, compliance, and health & safety standards
* Working closely with clients and senior leadership to ensure smooth contract delivery and continuous improvement
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn’t just another Contracts Manager position. You’ll be joining a business that:
* Is financially strong and cash-rich, providing stability and security
* Has a supportive, experienced leadership team that empowers its managers
* Boasts a great company culture with genuinely low staff turnover
* Is growing at an impressive 30% year-on-year, creating real opportunities for progression
* Offers excellent salary and benefits, reflecting the importance of the role
About You
* Proven experience as a Contracts Manager (ideally within social housing or responsive maintenance)
* Strong understanding of damp & mould remediation and/or FRA works (highly desirable)
* Confident managing subcontractors and supply chain delivery models
* A natural leader who can motivate teams and build strong client relationships
* Commercially aware, organised, and solutions-focused
If you’re looking for a role where you can make a real impact, work with a forward-thinking contractor, and develop your career as the business continues to expand, this is an opportunity worth exploring
