You will play a vital role in maintaining and enhancing the quality of Dudley’s housing stock. Each day will involve new responsibilities, including managing comprehensive surveys, working with external agencies, and addressing residents’ concerns about their homes. Your expertise will help ensure properties meet and exceed customer expectations while staying compliant with regulatory requirements.

Responsibilities

• Conduct detailed surveys and assessments of properties, advising on property conditions and contributing to the planning of future maintenance works.
• Upload, analyse and interpret survey data to inform maintenance programmes.
• Collaborate with external contractors and agencies to ensure compliance with current construction standards.
• Respond to residents’ concerns and support service delivery through detailed reporting and stakeholder communication.
• Travel around the borough as required; a full driving licence and access to your own vehicle are necessary.

Qualifications and Requirements

• Strong attention to detail with the ability to manage complex tasks and ensure property safety and compliance with industry standards.
• Ability to work collaboratively with multiple teams and build effective working relationships.
