• Use data and insight to inform decision-making and drive continuous improvement.
• Resolve issues promptly to achieve full compliance and strong customer satisfaction.
• Take responsibility for departmental service plans and budgets.
• Keep up to date with legislation, industry standards and emerging best practice.

What we’re looking for:

• Experience leading successful compliance teams with a strong focus on service delivery.
• A background in delivering building safety cases and resident engagement initiatives.
• Proven ability to manage large contracts and oversee M&E projects, ideally within housing.
• Professional membership (CIBSE, CIOB, RICS or equivalent) would be an advantage.

What you’ll bring:

• A proactive, knowledgeable leader who inspires and supports others.
• An inclusive and collaborative approach that encourages contributions from across the team.
• Strong commercial awareness with excellent financial and budget management skills.
• Confidence in communication, decision-making and problem-solving.
• Resilience, curiosity and a commitment to continuous improvement.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious leader to take ownership, drive high standards, and play a key role in strengthening building safety and compliance while making a real impact for residents and communities.
