The Opportunity:
  • Lead and support a dedicated team, managing performance, development plans and contractor relationships.
  • Drive compliance across cyclical programmes including gas servicing, electrical testing, fire safety, lift maintenance, asbestos and legionella.
  • Take a hands-on role in monitoring non-compliance, enforcing escalation processes and contributing to safety groups and forums.
  • Play a key role in budget forecasting and financial control.
  • Support wider project work, influencing service improvement through innovative solutions and system modernisation.
We’re seeking a confident and approachable leader with:
  • A background in compliance, property, safety or asset management within housing or relevant sectors.
  • Practical knowledge of landlord safety regulations including Building Regs, CDM and H&S legislation.
  • Experience managing contracts, budgets and compliance data at scale.
  • Strong communication skills, able to influence, challenge and represent the organisation in forums and steering groups.
  • A proactive, customer-first mindset and the ability to hold teams accountable while fostering a supportive and high-performing environment.
Why Join?
  • Make a tangible difference in communities through compliance leadership that protects people and homes.
  • Be part of an agile organisation where you have the ability to make changes on a large scale.
  • Enjoy autonomy and support within a collaborative, close-knit technical services team.
