DIO - Land and Property Surveyor

3 months ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom Defence Infrastructure Organisation Full time
Key Responsibilities

The Surveyor positions within the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) involve collaborating on a diverse array of programs and services while providing expert advice and maintaining communication with essential stakeholders.

The responsibilities are extensive and varied, with primary activities across different divisions including:

Commercial Land Management Services

Assisting Senior Surveyors in all facets of land and property management:
  • Engaging with military leadership to ensure the provision of professional guidance that supports military objectives.
  • Overseeing lease agreements, including landlord-tenant matters, rent assessments, lease renewals, and negotiations for both lettings and hirings.
  • Negotiating and managing various property agreements (leases, licenses, wayleaves, and easements) for multiple purposes.
  • Facilitating the acquisition and negotiation of new hirings to fulfill military needs.
  • Conducting due diligence in land and property management to identify, mitigate, and manage legal, financial, and reputational risks associated with MOD land.
  • Participating in a variety of projects across the UK to enhance Defence capabilities.
Rural Land Management Services

Supporting Senior Surveyors in all aspects of rural estate management:
  • Collaborating with military leaders to deliver professional advice that enables military outputs, while working with internal and external stakeholders such as environmental agencies, property developers, local authorities, and the public.
  • Conducting due diligence in land and property management to identify, mitigate, and manage risks on MOD land.
  • Managing agreements including landlord-tenant relationships, rent assessments, lease renewals, and negotiations for lettings and hirings.
  • Engaging with agricultural tenants to provide guidance on farming practices that assist MOD in achieving operational and sustainability goals.
  • Negotiating and granting occupation agreements (leases, licenses, wayleaves, and easements) for various uses.
  • Facilitating the acquisition and negotiation of new hirings to meet military needs.
Acquisition and Disposal Management

Assisting Senior Surveyors in all aspects of acquisition and disposal:
  • Managing disposal projects from initiation to completion.
  • Collaborating with technical teams to secure optimal planning and disposal strategies.
  • Maintaining effective communication with customers and stakeholders.
DIO Business Area Estates

The Defence estate represents one of the largest landholdings in the UK, encompassing approximately 1.8% of the UK land area (over 200,000 hectares). This is complemented by a significant Defence presence internationally.

The Estates team operates within the DIO (part of the UK Ministry of Defence), addressing infrastructure needs across a prominent Public Estate. We acquire, manage, safeguard, and dispose of Defence real estate. Our unique understanding of the Defence Estate enables our in-house property professionals to offer comprehensive advice to military clients.

Team Overview

Land Management Services (LMS) functions as an in-house consultancy team providing a complete range of surveying and estate management services to the MOD. This includes lettings, lease acquisitions, lease management, landlord-tenant relations, rent assessments, lease renewals, and general property-related advice to protect MOD interests. LMS also engages extensively with local authorities, government departments, and special interest groups, providing support and expert advice for parliamentary matters.

Acquisitions and Disposals (A&D) is the in-house Estates team responsible for the disposal of surplus MOD land and property to generate capital for reinvestment in the retained MOD estate. The team manages a substantial pipeline of sites for disposal, supporting major infrastructure initiatives. The team also acquires land and property for MOD projects as necessary.

Location

DIO Estates operates across various regions in the UK, including London, Southeast, Southwest, West Midlands, East of England, and Yorkshire and Humber. While advertised locations are available, other DIO locations may also be considered.

Our DIO Offices are distributed throughout the country, with primary locations in Andover, London, Wyton, Lichfield, and Catterick. Smaller DIO sites are also available across the country.

All locations will be evaluated to ensure that the successful candidate can meet the business and travel requirements of the role.

We offer flexible base locations for this role, aiming to designate one of our DIO Offices as the duty station. The role entails regional responsibilities, and the office location will be determined based on travel requirements. Work location will be finalized once the successful candidate is selected.

The successful candidate is expected to regularly attend their chosen office location, which will involve weekly attendance for face-to-face meetings and collaboration. The role will require regular travel to sites within the region and occasionally across the UK for meetings and site inspections. When traveling outside the base location for work purposes, access to flights, hire cars, rail tickets, and overnight accommodations will be provided. Candidates may also claim mileage for using their own vehicle for business travel.

Where business needs permit, some roles may allow for a combination of office and home-based work. This arrangement is non-contractual, with all office-based employees expected to spend a minimum of 60% of their working time in the office, subject to capacity and necessary workplace adjustments. Attendance at other locations for official business will also count towards this attendance requirement.
