We are looking for a confident, competent detail-focused individual with great interpersonal skills for this busy Head of Building Safety role. If this is you, come and join us at Islington and Shoreditch Housing Association (ISHA).

Head of Building Safety
Hours: 35 hours (full time)
Contract: Permanent
Location: ISHA, 102 Blackstock Road, Finsbury Park, N4 2DR
Salary: £80,617

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Building Safety professional to join our small, but supportive, Building Safety team. This role focuses on all aspects of the Building Safety Act 2022 and the Fire Safety Act 2021 and offers a varied and engaging environment for a curious, solution-focused individual with a passion for building safety and resident wellbeing. The successful candidate will play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of our residents and the compliance of our buildings.

We are seeking a proactive and committed individual with strong interpersonal skills who can provide an efficient and customer-focused compliance service to residents, employees and senior leaders. We want someone who is passionate about Building Safety while providing high-quality compliance services. You should be solution-focused and proactive in identifying and addressing compliance issues.

You need to be flexible, curious, and enthusiastic, and have excellent communication and influencing skills. A great sense of humour will serve you in good stead working in our busy, fast paced office.

This role offers an excellent opportunity to make a significant impact on building safety and resident wellbeing within our housing portfolio. If you are an experienced Building Safety professional looking to further your career in building safety management, we want to hear from you.

Don’t feel you meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that some candidates are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single requirement. At ISHA, we are dedicated to building an inclusive workforce, so if you’re excited by this role but your experience doesn’t quite align perfectly, we encourage you to apply anyway. You just might be the right candidate for this, or other roles, because of your transferable skills.

About ISHA

We are a small but ambitious housing association at a critical juncture. Our ambition is for the communities we are anchored in and exist to serve, and we have done and achieved much over the past few years. But in these challenging times we know we’ll achieve nothing unless we are equally ambitious for own our people.

Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions. We strive to build a more diverse organisation, where everyone feels empowered to bring, and be, their best self to work.

We can’t be a brilliant landlord if we don’t partner with brilliant colleagues. Could you be one of them and be trusted to make the difference?

If this sounds exciting, we want you on our team. Please do submit an application.

Staff Benefits

We’ll offer you a generous pension scheme (up to 10% employer matched contributions and a death in service benefit), 29 days annual leave (increasing after five years’ service), eye care vouchers, a cycle to work scheme and other great benefits (see attached). We have an evolving wellbeing offer, that is being developed following employee feedback, and we will invest in your professional development with on-going training and career development opportunities.

Deadline: 10:00am on Tuesday 29 October 2024
Interview: Tuesday 5 November 2024 in person at 102 Blackstock Road N4 2DR
Please note: We can only able to accept applications from candidates with eligibility to currently work in the UK.

Inclusion and Diversity

We want ISHA to be a great place to work and to ensure that our communities are represented across our workforce. A vital part of this is ensuring we are a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity in all respects, including diversity of thinking. We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBTQ+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to our residents so that passionate commitment to customers, respect for everyone, pride in Team ISHA and trusted to make the difference remains at the heart of everything we do.

Asking for adjustments

ISHA is committed to making our recruitment practices barrier-free and as accessible as possible for everyone. This includes making adjustments or changes for disabled people, neurodiverse people or people with long-term health conditions. If you would like us to do anything differently during the application, interview, or assessment process, including providing information in an alternative format, please contact us.
