L&Q is continuing to invest in the future of building safety and is expanding our Operational Building Safety Team within the Property and Investment Directorate. We’re excited to be recruiting a Building Safety Manager to play a vital role in protecting our residents and strengthening safety standards across our homes.
This is a high‑profile and influential role where you’ll work closely with Lead Building Safety Managers, the Head of Service, and the Director of Building Compliance, as well as partnering with the Strategic Building Safety Team to deliver meaningful, organisation‑wide impact.

You’ll lead on the procurement of specialist services and take responsibility for managing and maintaining accurate building safety data.

Bringing strong technical expertise, you’ll have in‑depth knowledge of building safety, including the operational maintenance of key active fire systems and other building‑specific M&E systems.
Equally important is your ability to build relationships and influence. You’ll be a confident, first‑class communicator, experienced in working with a wide range of stakeholders, from residents and resident groups to Corporate Health & Safety, Housing Management, and wider Property Services teams, helping to promote transparency, trust, and a strong culture of safety across our communities.
What you'll bring:
Ability to liaise effectively with a broad range of stakeholders to ensure truly collaborative agreed approaches and outcomes.
Practical Experience of Operational Building Safety including knowledge of active fire, M&E and specialist safety installations and systems.
