THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF TIFFENY'S POWERFUL VOICE

At Westminster City Council, we don't just listen to the voices and experiences of our residents - we listen to our people too. Tiffeny is a single mum whose young son has ADHD and before joining our team, she never thought she'd find a job that gave her flexibility and freedom to support her son's needs. As a neurodivergent woman herself, she also never expected to be part of a team that not only supports her needs, but actively celebrates them - where people encourage her to be her true self. And that's what she found here at the City of Westminster.

Working as an Engagement Officer Within the corporate property team means that she gets to meet people from all walks of life within the community supporting the development of positive change, especially being the voice for young people where it matters - in education, training, or employment. Her experiences and her amazing ability to relate to others means that within the first few months of joining our team, she'd already made a huge impact on things like accessibility in the Borough. Tiffeny feels heard and that's because we know how important it is to listen.

The Role:

As an Asbestos Compliance Officer, you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster's success. Working as part of the Compliance Team, you will play a critical role in ensuring that all operational buildings across Westminster's property portfolio meet their statutory obligations in relation to asbestos compliance.

You will be responsible for maintaining and updating asbestos registers and databases, working closely with consultants, analysts, contractors, and external bodies to ensure accurate and timely information management. Your role will involve managing asbestos survey and remedial contracts - ensuring timely delivery, quality standards, and adherence to budget - as well as coordinating re-inspections and reviewing asbestos management plans to ensure actions are being completed by the FM and Workplace Team.

In this role, you will monitor, audit and review risk assessments, method statements, permits to work and access, and ensure all documentation is up to date, consistent, and accurate. You will support the development and maintenance of WCC's compliance systems, ensuring all certificates and documentation are correctly uploaded and accessible.

As a technical advisor, you will provide professional support across the directorate, ensuring compliance on all aspects of asbestos management and proactively identifying areas for improvement. You will facilitate audits, inspections and validation checks, and collaborate with the Technical Assurance Lead to produce monthly statutory compliance KPIs and performance reports.

You will contribute to the review and development of asbestos-related policies, including facilitating work with the Corporate Health and Safety team, advising on legislative changes, and assisting in the adaptation of service delivery in response. You will also manage the administration of quotations, orders and invoicing, and participate in incident investigations when required.

This is a role that requires attention to detail, strong communication and organisational skills, and the confidence to engage with a wide range of stakeholders. You'll thrive in a collaborative environment where your technical knowledge and proactive mindset will help drive safe, compliant outcomes for Westminster.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

With a background in managing compliance across a complex portfolio of buildings, you bring hands-on experience in delivering asbestos survey programmes, re-inspections, and remedial works. You have worked on projects under the Construction, Design and Management (CDM) Regulations 2015 and are confident in carrying out site audits and compliance inspections. Skilled in managing asbestos contracts, you are also experienced in analysing and monitoring complex asbestos data using IT systems for effective reporting and performance tracking.

You are comfortable working both independently and as part of a team, with the ability to manage your own workload, meet deadlines, and escalate issues when necessary. You have strong stakeholder management skills and communicate clearly, both verbally and in writing. With a strong grasp of asbestos compliance requirements, you understand complex reports and know how to identify and follow up on required actions. Your ability to manage contractors and support contract administration makes you a reliable and solutions-focused team member. You also bring knowledge of compliance audits and contribute to continuous improvement in safety and service quality.
