The successful candidate will be required to complete building surveys, scope remedial works, and ensure that corrective solutions are designed and delivered effectively. A high degree of accuracy, professional judgement and attention to detail is essential.

The post holder must ensure consistent quality, compliance, and value for money from initial survey to final sign-off.

  • Scope and survey work
  • Ensure works that you are accountable for are supervised and monitored through to completion
  • Recruit and induct operatives ensuring they have a professional introduction to the company and contract and ensure the probationary process is effectively managed and completed to a successful outcome for the company
  • Understand each toolbox talk topic and deliver confidently yourself, ensuring that operatives attend when required
  • Treat tenants with respect, demonstrating a courteous manner, escalating if an issue cannot be resolved to the Contract Manager
  • Reinforce the Health and Safety culture by ensuring that company practices and policies are being followed and adhered to by you and others in the field, undertaking documented observations, highlighting issues and trends as they occur
  • Carry out employee investigations, ensuring they are completed in a professional and timely manner
  • Carry out absence management procedures, undertaking return to work interviews, and performance reviews where required
  • Carry out accident incident, and near miss investigations, ensuring these are completed in a professional and timely manner
  • Ensure that you follow and adhere to the Integrated Management Systems, processes, and procedures
  • Provide escalation as part of an out of hours service, attending site where requested
  • Embrace the Mountjoy ethos of “Integrity, built-in - doing the right thing even when no one is looking.”

Requirements:

  • Able to conduct building surveys and preparing technical reports
  • Diagnose building defects including damp and mould
  • Capable of managing varied repair and refurbishment projects from inception to completion
  • Able to recruit and induct staff ensuring they have a professional introduction to the company and contract
  • Be the technical expert for associated works, providing efficient and effective solutions where required
  • Able to support and coach operatives to achieve the perfect process
  • Able to operate in a changing and evolving environment and enjoy the challenge
  • Possess interpersonal skills and ability to communicate at all levels in a professional manner being able to challenge and be challenged
  • Have an organised approach to work and time management
  • Able to apply a practical approach and solutions to Health & Safety
  • Proficient in MS Office to an intermediate level and the ability to use an IT system for job management understanding how it functions and interacts with other systems
  • Able to record information in the field, identify trends and recurrent issues and put a measure in place to understand the extent of the trend or issue
  • Be a team player by understanding what it is to be part of a team, sharing experiences and learning
  • Proactive in identifying your development needs and doing something to overcome them
  • Be able to self-manage and be self-motivated, prioritising work and have a desire to solve problems and eliminate waste
  • Technical building knowledge of working methods, practices, procedures, processes, regulations, and legislation
  • Have knowledge of the materials and methods used in the construction and building maintenance industry
  • Desired: HNC/HND or NVQ Level 4+ in Building Studies/Construction plus PCA CSTDB or CSRT
