You’ll take ownership from appointment making stage, through to validating and uploading data into the asset database, making sure that the data is always accurate and up to date. Should your survey pick up any building defects, these will be reported through the appropriate channels. In this role you’ll play a key part in helping us understand the condition of our homes so we can plan future investment and ensure our customers live in safe, well‑maintained properties.
