We offer a wide range of career opportunities at every level of the organisation. From apprenticeships to senior management, permanent to fixed term contracts or part-time working, we have something for everyone. About the Role
It’s an exciting time to join Warwick District Council’s Neighbourhood and Assets team, as we deliver on a variety of compliance projects for the Council’s housing stock and our many historic buildings. Our projects are varied and interesting and will provide you with an interesting range of risks and projects to manage. We are looking for a Building Safety Lead to join our experienced team on a permanent basis. Our work involves managing and addressing strategic and operational risks presented by the Council’s housing stock including several high-rise blocks. It also involves our corporate and commercial premises including many buildings in conservation areas and several which are of regional and national importance. You will lead the Building Safety agenda, supporting the Asset Manager to deliver strategic and operational objectives of building safety across the big 6 compliance areas of gas and electrical safety, asbestos management, lifts, water hygiene, and the Building Safety Act 2022. You will liaise with the Building Safety Regulators, particularly in connection with our high-rise blocks. You will have autonomy to train technical, estates and housing staff to promote a positive building safety culture across the Council. All of this is underpinned by our Big 7 Compliance Policies and Procedures. You will work with our Fire Safety lead, ensuring that our buildings and tenants' homes are warm and safe, and the Regulator of Social Housing’s Quality and Safety Standards are met. We work on an agile basis, with much of our work being delivered either on site or from home; office and hybrid working are also available. While home working is offered for this role, it is a requirement that the successful candidate be available to attend meetings at our offices within Warwick district when required. If you have any questions or wish to have an informal discussion, please contact Phil Dark
Philip.Dark@warwick.gov.uk We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is subject to an enhanced check. The intention is for the postholder to work predominantly from home; however, it is a requirement to attend our offices or sites within Warwick District as required. Any costs for travel from home to the office will be met by the successful candidate. However, office and hybrid working are also available. Closing date: 31st January 2025
