Sustainable Building Services (SBS) is a multi-award-winning retrofit decarbonisation solutions provider and principal contractor delivering at scale across all housing tenure types — social, owner-occupied, and private rental homes.
As a leader in residential decarbonisation, energy efficiency, and whole-house retrofit, we currently manage and deliver over £100m+ large-scale retrofit schemes, blending funding across mixed-tenures to maximise positive impact across communities.
Our work directly improves the living conditions, health, comfort, and wellbeing of thousands of households each year — helping to reduce fuel poverty and address four of today’s greatest challenges: the cost of living, energy security, climate change, and public health.

- Managing health & safety on site, including reviewing RAMS, carrying out safety inspections, and delivering weekly toolbox talks.
- Monitoring progress against the master programme, issuing weekly progress reports and liaising with the reporting Manager.
- Maintaining strong control over materials procurement, deliveries, workmanship quality, and compliance with designs, regulations and company standards.
- Working closely with surveyors on cost control, waste management, variations, and instructions.
- Building and maintaining positive relationships with clients, design teams, neighbours and other stakeholders, including chairing weekly review meetings.
- Keeping accurate project records to ensure full traceability.
- Supporting team development through mentoring and by undertaking relevant training.
- Travelling within the region as required.
