Job Description

Fantastic Opportunity for a motivated Building Surveyor based in the Southwest

Your new company
Your new Organisation is responsible for the management of some 2,600 residential properties across 65 developments throughout England. Forty-eight of these developments, representing 2,000 units, are ‘retirement’ developments where ownership of property is restricted to those over the age of at least 55 years old.
The retirement portfolio is the predominant part of the organisation's management business.
Your new role
As Building Surveyor, you will have overall responsibility for the maintenance of the buildings and equipment on each of the developments within your geographical ‘patch’.
You should appreciate that in retirement developments there are usually lifts, alarms, automatic doors and other related equipment, so a surveyor who has an understanding of such M&E-related systems would be an ideal addition to the team.
You will report to the Technical Director, who is part of the company's management team, on all aspects of contracts and the technical administration of estates under management. Furthermore, on most of the retirement developments there is also an Owners’ Board, constituted of those living in the development.
You will also be expected to account to these boards on relevant technical issues. The organisation has two home-based Regional Estates Managers, each covering an appropriate geographical area. You will be expected to liaise with your Regional Manager as necessary and to keep him or her fully apprised of progress on matters on which you are working.

* Undertake new build development inspections/surveys
