  • Budget Management: Track expenses, oversee the maintenance budget, and provide cost estimates for repairs or upgrades.
  • Inspection and Compliance: Conduct regular inspections to ensure all properties meet health and safety regulations, building standards, and fire safety compliance.
  • Repairs and Upkeep: Oversee day-to-day repairs and ensure prompt response to maintenance requests from residents and property managers.
  • Contractor Management: Manage external contractors for specialized repairs or larger projects, ensuring work is completed on time, within budget, and to high standards.
  • Documentation: Maintain accurate records of maintenance activities, including inspections, repair logs, and compliance certifications.
  • Emergency Response: Act as the first point of contact for emergency maintenance issues, ensuring swift resolution to minimise disruption to residents.
  • Stock Management: Ensure all maintenance tools, equipment, and materials are available and maintained.


Requirements:

  • Proven experience in a similar maintenance role, preferably within residential property management.
  • Technical expertise in building systems, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems.
  • Strong knowledge of health and safety regulations, fire safety, and building compliance standards.
  • Exceptional organizational and leadership skills, with experience managing teams and contractors.
  • Proficiency in using maintenance management software and Microsoft Office Suite.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to liaise effectively with residents and stakeholders.
  • Ability to respond to emergencies and work flexible hours when required.
  • Driving Licence is a MUST



Preferred Qualifications:

  • NVQ Level 3 or equivalent in a related field (e.g., electrical, plumbing, or building maintenance).
  • IOSH or NEBOSH certification in health and safety.
  • Experience with residential block management software is an advantage.
