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.
