Head of Building Compliance & Resident Safety

We are seeking an experienced and forward thinking leader to lead our Building Compliance and Resident Safety function, ensuring our homes remain safe, compliant and aligned with all regulatory requirements.

In this pivotal role, the focus will be on leading and developing a high performing team, overseeing all statutory compliance activity, and driving the implementation of our refreshed safety strategy. Key responsibilities include managing critical areas such as fire safety, gas and electrical compliance, asbestos, water management, lifting equipment, and wider building safety obligations. Championing the 'golden thread' of information will be essential to ensure accurate data underpins risk management, reporting, and investment planning.

Through collaboration with colleagues, residents, contractorslany and regulators you will strengthen contract management arrangements, support service improvement, and maintain Building Safety Cases, Resident Engagement Plans, and compliance documentation to the highest standard. As a senior leader, the role involves modelling our values, managing budgets effectively, and contributing to strategic planning across the organisation.

We are looking for someone with strong sector experience, excellent knowledge of building safety legislation, commercial acumen and the ability to influence, engage and lead confidently. A relevant degree, relevant professional qualifications and health and safety training are highly desirable.

If you are passionate about resident safety and ready to shape a safer future for our communities, we would love to hear from you.

The role requires travel between different sites, making a driving licence and access to a vehicle or effective use of public transport essential.

We are genuinely proud of our diversity, our people, our values, our homes and our achievements and you will support our ongoing evolution. In line with our ethos as an organisation we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive organisation with a sense of belonging, where everyone knows their opinions matter and their talents can be fully utilised.
