**About the Borough** 1

This special place in South West London between the capital and the country has been a Royal borough longer than anywhere else - it is where the first kings of England were crowned.

Today it is a vibrant and diverse borough, with a long history and strong cultural and community heritage. Kingston's riverside location, fantastic retail offer, historic market place and church, parks and gardens all make Kingston town centre the vibrant space it is, and each of our district town centres (Surbiton, New Malden, Tolworth and Chessington) have something unique to offer.

Situated in Zone 6, Kingston is among the best-connected town centres in London - with direct train links from Kingston and Surbiton stations to Clapham Junction and London Waterloo, as well as Wimbledon for an interchange with the London Underground and Tramlink.

Kingston’s people are innovative and entrepreneurial, and have a strong sense of community pride. The borough has been home to great industry and creativity for many years, reflected in assets such as the Rose Theatre, the International Youth Arts Festival and Kingston University, which boasts more new graduate business start-ups than any other.

We have seen tremendous generosity and compassion within our communities, particularly in response to COVID-19, which is a demonstration of Kingston’s key strength. The council offers a strong level of support to vulnerable groups and those who need additional support, which has also increased significantly as a result of the pandemic. Like most places, the average age of our population is rising as more people are living longer, so we are working closely with residents to help them maintain their independence and further improve the cost effectiveness of our service to meet the ongoing rise in demand.

Kingston is home to people from diverse and interesting cultures and backgrounds, which helps to create the rich sense of community shared across the borough. In particular, Kingston has a large Sri Lankan Tamil community and is home to more people from Korea than any other part of the UK.

**About the Role** 1

There has never been a more exciting time to be in building control and as a Principal Building Control Surveyor, you will be one of the lead technical surveyors providing guidance and advice on all building control matters. From your first day of employment you will be working on a wide range of projects across the borough including the construction of a brand new leisure complex, high rise apartment schemes and shopping centre complexes. This also includes supporting the Building Control Manager with service delivery targets, dealing with dangerous structures, demolitions and attending other emergency incidents. We have a number of partnership working agreements that you would lead on so it is important to develop effective client relationships.

As a lead officer you will work alongside a number of senior officers representing the Council's Strategic Planning and Infrastructure function, which comprises Building Control, Strategic Planning, Development Management and Planning Enforcement.

Enthusiastic and forward thinking, you will use your professional and technical skills to deliver statutory building control functions and contribute to customer focused, results driven service delivery. With the upcoming changes to the entire Building Control sector, you will be dedicated to obtaining the training and qualifications required to obtain a Building Safety Regulator (BSR) licence in line with the requirements of the Building Safety Act 2022 before 6th April 2024.

You will be involved in virtually all aspects of the construction process, from pre commencement meetings to the final sign-off. You’ll be working with many different people, from technical experts and construction professionals through to householders looking to update, improve or even build their own home. No two days are the same

We are fully committed to training and developing our staff and as our Principal Building Control Surveyor you will provide mentor support to trainees and assistant colleagues. We actively promote a good work/life balance including flexible working hours and some home working opportunities. We also promote flexibility in service delivery and use remote/mobile working technology.

This role is a hybrid working arrangement role. Typically, on site each day with daily virtual team meetings. Once a month, the whole building control team meet in the office.
