Job Advert
Are you a qualified building surveyor with experience in social housing and a passion for making a difference? The United Reformed Church Retired Ministers Housing Society is looking for someone to join our small, dedicated team and help ensure retired ministers live in safe, comfortable, and well-maintained homes.
In this role, you’ll take ownership of repairs and maintenance across our 260 properties, assessing homes, specifying adaptations, and managing both planned and reactive maintenance. You’ll prepare technical specifications, oversee contractors, and work within budget, all while playing a central role in delivering and improving our asset management strategy. Your work will directly impact the quality of life for our residents, helping them live safely and independently in their later years.
We’re looking for someone with residential maintenance and surveying experience, ideally within social housing, and a strong understanding of adaptations for elderly or disabled residents. You’ll be confident communicating complex technical information clearly, managing budgets effectively, and working collaboratively with colleagues. Educated to degree level, hold RICS or CIOB accreditation, strong IT skills, and a clean driving licence are essential.
This is more than a job; it’s an opportunity to combine your technical expertise with a meaningful purpose. If you want a role where your skills make a real difference to people’s lives, this is your chance to step in and leave a lasting impact.
