At NCHA, we prioritise safety and compliance in all our operations. We're seeking a dedicated Building Safety Manager to join our team and ensure the safety and compliance of high-risk buildings in our housing stock.

As A Building Safety Manager, you will adhere closely to the Building Safety Act, with your primary responsibility to oversee the day-to-day management of building safety risks, particularly fire and structural hazards.

Some of your duties may include:

* Conducting regular inspections, ensuring that building safety measures (such as fire alarms, emergency exits, and structural integrity) are in place and functioning

* Keeping residents informed about safety procedures

* Acting as a key liaison between building owners, residents, and regulators, ensuring compliance with legal safety obligations and managing any safety-related incidents or concerns that may arise.

The ideal candidate must also be highly organised, proactive, and detail-oriented, capable of conducting thorough risk assessments, managing safety records, and responding effectively to safety concerns or incidents. Strong leadership and problem-solving abilities are key to driving a culture of safety and ensuring compliance with legal obligations.

The role is full time, 35 hours per week to be worked Monday to Friday. Initially you will be required to work from our brand new offices in Clifton, but once established, there will be scope to adopt a hybrid working model with 3 days in the office and 2 at home.
