As a Property Surveyor working for this central London Borough you will work with the Area Repairs Manager (North West/South Central) to implement and develop effective systems to regularly inspect the external and communal parts of property. You will be tasked with identifying any requirements for reactive repairs and cyclical maintenance, and to ensure works required are carried out to high standards.
On a daily basis you will carry out post inspections of: building structure / furniture and fabric of the buildings; resident in dwelling repairs (reactive and planned) and communal areas / estates and grounds.
You will be making use of Site Audit Pro or approved equivalent with photos and detailed diagnostics of the visit. You will then raise orders on the system, and manage the booking process with the resident. Site reports and details of inspections will be provided to the resident within 3 working days of visits to the home and stored on a central system.
We are looking for someone with an extensive track record carrying out a role of this nature within a Local Authority or a Housing Association. Technical competency is of importance, but you must also be able to show excellent customer service skills and the ability to effectively project manage multiple small scale projects (typical value up to £1500).
The role will be full time office-based with site visits as required. The standard week is 36 hours and the client will pay £300/day (umbrella).
