We are looking for a skilled and motivated surveyor to join our Building Compliance Team at emh.

You will have experience drawing up specifications, raising and progressing works orders and preparing contract documents for planned, reactive and compliance related works, and providing accurate estimates for projects and contracts. You will have ownership of specific project or contract budgets and will be responsible for ensuring control over those budgets, making recommendations on how to improve efficiency and value for money. You will liaise regularly with contractors and suppliers and should be effective at contract management and administration.

Health and Safety will be a priority, and you will carry out scheme, COSE and risk assessments, identifying operational risks and taking action to mitigate those, always ensuring 100% compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements.

Emh has a co-regulation model, and you will actively engage with customers to address complaints and improve the service delivery, including participating in resident forums and scrutiny activity.

You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, which you will demonstrate in the customer focused service you deliver, and by working closely and in conjunction with other stakeholders across the business, including our Trade Union representatives, colleagues within the Property Services Directorate, and both our Housing and Customer Service Teams.
