This is an exciting and challenging new post created to enable us to fundamentally change and improve our service to our tenants and other customers, and to develop a subsidiary maintenance company.
This will enable us to bring all responsive repairs activity in house through the development of an internally managed in house repairs team function, with the future potential to expand this to wider capital and cyclical works.
This role, and our vision, means you need to be ready to break new ground in
restructuring the service delivery models currently in place. The job will be challenging and varied. You will need strong leadership skills, the ability to think strategically and be focused on achieving effective resource management across a wide geographical area, and providing excellence in the quality of the services you deliver.
This will involve a primary early objective of establishing a viable business plan. After the planning stages, this will involve the set-up and ongoing management of our subsidiary maintenance company (including reporting to the subsidiary Board). This will mean acting as ‘contractor’ for our routine maintenance services.
Previous commercial experience of developing and delivering a large scale response and planned repairs service and setting up a similar subsidiary company would be advantageous.
