Bedford (Hybrid)

£60,000 per annum plus £2000 car allowance

Contract: Permanent, Full-Time (37 hours/week)

Are you passionate about building safety and defect resolution? We’re looking for a skilled and proactive individual to lead our efforts in identifying and remediating defects across our property portfolio—including fire safety, structural integrity, and latent issues. This role is central to ensuring our buildings are safe, compliant, and customer-focused.

Reporting to the Building Safety Manager, you’ll oversee the full lifecycle of remediation projects, ensuring work meets all relevant regulations and safety standards. You’ll be a key advocate for safe working practices and high-quality outcomes.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Proactively identify and assess risks related to building defects and safety.
• Develop and implement effective remediation plans that align with project goals, timelines, and budgets.
• Lead and manage projects from initiation to completion, coordinating resources and stakeholders.
• Communicate clearly and regularly with internal teams and external partners.
• Handle complaints professionally and within expected timeframes.
• Promote and uphold safe working practices, challenging poor quality or unsafe behaviours.

We’d Love to Hear From You If You Have:

• Experience in a similar role within construction, fire safety, or defect remediation.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to engage diverse stakeholders.
• A background or qualification in fire safety or fire engineering.
• Knowledge of fire and structural safety principles and how to apply them.
• A solid understanding of construction health and safety legislation, including CDM 2015 (minimum Level 3).
• Evidence of ongoing professional development and a commitment to learning.
• A degree or equivalent qualification in building, construction, or a related field.

We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. If you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t align perfectly with every requirement, we encourage you to apply. You might be just the right person for the role—or for another opportunity with us.
