Project Manager – Building Maintenance & Major Works
We're working exclusively with a well-established, values-driven housing association that owns and manages thousands of homes across the UK. Due to continued investment in its housing stock and building safety programme, they're looking to appoint an experienced Project Manager to deliver a diverse portfolio of major works and building maintenance projects.
This is an excellent opportunity to take ownership of technically challenging projects that genuinely improve residents' homes and communities. You'll lead the delivery of defect-led and reactive major works, oversee specialist building safety projects and work alongside senior stakeholders to ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently and to the highest standards.
The Role
You'll manage a varied programme of projects, including:
Building defect and rectification works
Major maintenance and refurbishment projects
Balcony replacement programmes
Structural repair projects
Building safety improvement works
Overheating mitigation and "Hot Homes" initiatives
Other specialist projects across an existing residential portfolio
From initial investigation through to completion, you'll coordinate surveys, manage contractors and consultants, monitor budgets and programmes, mitigate risks and ensure full compliance with current legislation and organisational standards.
You'll also play a key role in resident engagement, providing clear communication throughout the project lifecycle while maintaining accurate project records and audit trails.
What You'll Be Doing
Deliver complex major works and defect remediation projects from inception through to completion.
Manage contractors, consultants and specialist suppliers to achieve high-quality outcomes.
Coordinate technical investigations, surveys and condition assessments.
Monitor project budgets, programmes, risks and performance.
Ensure compliance with Building Safety legislation and industry best practice.
Build positive relationships with residents and internal stakeholders.
Produce project reports and maintain accurate documentation.
Drive continuous improvement across project delivery and contractor performance.
About You
We're looking for someone who has:
Experience delivering major works, building maintenance or refurbishment projects within social housing, housing associations, local authorities or ALMOs.
A strong understanding of building defects, asset management and building safety.
Experience managing contractors and consultants on occupied residential properties.
Excellent project management and stakeholder management skills.
Knowledge of compliance, health & safety and construction legislation.
The ability to manage multiple projects while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.
A customer-focused approach and genuine commitment to improving residents' homes.
Why Apply?
Join a respected housing provider with a strong social purpose.
Manage meaningful projects that directly improve residents' lives.
Hybrid and flexible working.
Diverse, technically interesting project portfolio.
Supportive leadership team with genuine opportunities for professional development.
Excellent benefits package and long-term career progression.
