A rare opportunity has arisen for a Void Maintenance Supervisor within PRS (Metra Living) to join our high-achieving team. With a portfolio of just over 3000 properties, you will work with 3 other Void Supervisors to turn our voids around within a 2 week period. You will be accountable for all void work-related repairs, and compliance requirements around gas, EICR, asbestos, water hygiene, health and safety, EPC's and waste disposal. Reporting to the Maintenance Manager for Voids, you will liaise with void and electrical contractors to ensure a thorough specification of works is created at the start of the void, monitoring performance throughout to ensure our targets are met, within budget. Working closely with stakeholders, you will have excellent communication and diary management skills to keep on top of a busy schedule, whilst being a professional representative of Metra Living.
Our properties are located within the M25, and this role is currently to cover parts of South West, South and South East London, however there will be occasions when travel to other areas is required. A company vehicle will be provided, therefore a full UK driving license is required.
