Job description
Ignite Recruitment Services have over 20 years of experience in the construction industry. We strongly believe in “being of service” to our clients. We make it a point to ensure that the experience candidates and clients have with us is only a positive one.
The construction industry is not a 9-5 job; and neither do we subscribe to this mind set. We believe that a construction recruitment company needs to be always available on the phone or in person 24/7/365.

Organise Repairs: Schedule and track maintenance tasks to ensure work is completed properly.
Tenant Support: Be the main contact for tenants regarding repairs, keeping them informed.
Contractor Management: Arrange and oversee external contractors and in-house teams.
Health & Safety Compliance: Ensure all maintenance follows safety regulations, including fire safety and asbestos awareness.
Record Keeping: Keep accurate records of maintenance work and contractor performance.
Preventative Maintenance: Plan routine maintenance to reduce future issues.
Teamwork: Work closely with multi traders, tenants and landlords.
Requirements:
* Experience in maintenance coordination, property management, or facilities management in social housing.
* Knowledge of health and safety regulations and maintenance best practices.
* Experience managing budgets and contractors.
* Familiarity with reactive and planned maintenance.
* Familiarity with multi trades (carpentry, plastering, painting, basic plumbing and electrical works preferred)
