Salary: £41,487.00 - 44,700.00 per annum
Contract: Permanent, full time
Location: Various locations across West Yorkshire
Looking for a Clerk of Works role where you can make a real impact across a diverse estate?
This key position sits within West Yorkshire Police’s Estates and Business Services Directorate, providing expert M&E support across a diverse estate of around 100 operational and specialist buildings. We’re looking for someone who can work confidently both independently and as part of a busy team, managing a varied workload with ease.
