What You'll Be Doing
As Voids Maintenance Manager you will deliver a customer focused and effective property and asset management service that meets the diverse needs of our residents across the rental portfolio.
You will work collaboratively with business partners and other professionals including maintenance partners, to ensure value for money and quality accommodation that meets decent homes standards, managing works within an annual budget of around £1.5m to £2m
To be successful, you will need a good and clear understanding of customer service and property maintenance with experience of managing works within occupied housing. An innovator and a problem solver, you will have strong technical knowledge of construction and maintenance works. Along with an engaging and collaborative approach and the ability and motivation to achieve priorities on time and on budget.
Our properties are located throughout England, and Wales. You will be expected to visit residents in their homes, undertake inspections of properties (including occupied, void and those being considered for purchase) and supervise the works of contractors and consultants. In order to undertake visits, you will need to work flexibly and on occasion, may need to stay overnight away from home.
You will be assigned a regional area based upon your location. There are currently 4 patches covering the whole of England and Wales. Each patch contains around 300 – 350 homes.
On occasion it may be necessary for you to undertake works in regions other than your allocated region in order to balance workload between staff or to cover for leave.
Our main office is located in Westminster and on occasion you will need to attend the office for meetings, training courses and other events.
Our day to day repairs (up to a value of £1,500 inc. VAT) along with gas servicing and heating system replacement are undertaken by a single provider who operate a contact centre on our behalf. Queries arising from these works are managed by our Property Officers. Major works are arranged by directly us using local contractors. Major works may occur as a follow on from repairs (and be referred to us from our provider) or from queries received directly from customers.
The majority of void works are undertaken though a single provider, but if more specialised works are required then we appoint a consultant to design and specify the works and to procure and manage a works contractor.
About You
The Church of England is for everyone and we want to reflect the diversity of the community the Church serves across the whole country. Therefore, while of course we welcome all applications from interested and suitably experienced people, we would particularly welcome applicants from UK Minoritised Ethnicities (UKME)/Global Majority Heritage (GMH) and other under-represented groups. As a Disability Confident employer, we are committed to recruiting disabled people. We offer interviews to disabled people who meet the minimum criteria for the role.
