Role Overview

We are seeking a qualified Retrofit Assessor who also carries out Pre-Installation Building Inspections (PIBI) in line with PAS 2035 guidance. This role will also complete the supporting Technical Survey for insulation measures.

• Identify and record any potential risks or limitations related to retrofit measures.
• Ensure resident engagement and communication is clear, supportive, and professional.

Pre-Installation Building Inspection (PIBI) / Technical Survey

• Complete the PAS-compliant PIBI form as part of the Retrofit Assessment visit, ensuring all relevant areas are assessed (e.g., wall and roof construction, access, ventilation provisions, pre-existing defects).
• Use the PIBI to identify any technical, logistical, or safety-related issues that may impact installation.
• Complete Technical Surveys for insulation measures to allow the business to develop an effective scope of work for pricing and compliance purposes.
• Provide clear and accurate photographic evidence and supporting notes.
• Liaise with Retrofit Coordinators and Designers if issues arise that may require redesign or remedial work before installation.

Skills & Experience

Essential

• Qualified Retrofit Assessor (e.g., Level 5 Diploma in Retrofit Assessment or equivalent).
• Strong understanding of PAS 2035 and TrustMark requirements, including use of approved templates.

• Knowledge of building construction, ventilation, and retrofit measures.

• Excellent communication and customer service skills.
• Full UK driving license and access to a vehicle (field-based role).
• Experience working directly with Retrofit Coordinators and Installers.
• Understanding of ECO4/GBIS funding processes and compliance requirements.
• DEA (Domestic Energy Assessor) qualification.
• Familiarity with risk identification and mitigation during pre-works inspections.
