Harlow Council currently looks after circa 9,000 homes and 2,400 leasehold properties, and our journey of transformation in the past few years has been remarkable and led to sector and national recognition, but there is more to do.

Disrepair claim management; inspection, scheduling, reporting and validation of remedial work
Preparing design solutions, BCntl applications and specifying material and workmanship requirements
Performance management of Void property refurbishments; scoping and QC of non-routine works
Experience of supervising and monitoring the performance of external contractors and consultants. You must have a good understanding of Health and Safety and Building Legislation. Qualified to a minimum HNC/HND or equivalent standard, you must also be experienced in undertaking pre and post inspections of works.
