Are you ready to use your expertise to ensure our asset data is accurate, reliable and fit for purpose? Help shape investment decisions and influence the future direction of our five-year investment programme.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced surveyor who understands the importance of accurate asset data and can confidently validate property information, identify component lifestyles and ensure stock records accurately reflect conditions on site before investment works commence. You will assess against Decent Homes Standards, identify risks under the Housing Health and Safety Rating Systems (HHSRS), undertake energy efficiency surveys, and produce Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) where required.
This is a roam role, so you’ll mainly work across sites and properties within our operating area, as well as from our fantastic office at Hudson Quay in Middlesbrough. We’ll need you to be flexible around business and team need, so you may need to come into the office more frequently when required.
