4. Contribute to maintenance planning aligned with safety regulations and budget considerations.
5. Work collaboratively with surveyors and engineering teams.

Essential Requirements

1. Degree in Building Surveying or an equivalent recognised qualification.
2. Membership of a relevant professional body (e.g. RICS, CIOB).
3. Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
4. Full UK Driving Licence.
