As a Property Surveyor you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success. You’ll join our high profile Housing Services, and oversee and ensure building and maintenance projects are delivered on time and to budget. This work will include repairs, planned works and programmes, the refurbishment of empty properties, dealing with dampness and condensation issues, leak detection, planned preventative maintenance and the pre and post inspection of works. In addition, we’ll expect you to oversee the property surveying functions required to manage a portfolio of approximately 5,000 homes, including the structure and fabric of the buildings, internal and communal areas and estate grounds.
Working with our Area Repairs Managers to implement and develop the systems necessary to regularly inspect the external and communal parts of properties, you’ll identify any requirements for repairs and maintenance, and ensure works are carried out according to urgency and priority. Committed to collaborating with your colleagues as you ensure a joint approach to improving quality and customer satisfaction for our residents, you’ll also highlight key investment needs and considerations to the Property Planning and Assets Team so that works can be planned appropriately.
You’ll have a wide range of additional responsibilities – these include helping to lead and develop a team of technical staff, managing the local delivery of the repairs term contract, and ensuring that our health and safety management policy is fully implemented and documented. We’ll also expect you to lead, deliver and oversee planned strategic projects and programmes of change, and help to establish a coordinated and integrated approach to the management of the service we provide.
