Blackwood Homes and Care is a renowned housing and care provider within Scotland. We have a new, exciting opportunity available as a Property Officer in our Assets team.

We are looking for a new and dynamic team member who can deliver a first-rate repairs service for our customers, driving efficiencies whist increasing the quality of our customers experience.

You will support the identification, tracking and resolution of both property and environmental maintenance requirements throughout our developments. This will involve liaising directly with contractors on a regular basis to ensure quality services are delivered within KPI targets.

Conducting pre and post void inspections, placing void property repair work orders to enable fast re-letting of our properties, whilst working closely with Blackwood regional housing teams will be a key component of this role so attention to detail is a must.

The successful candidate will be a key figure for customer engagement for reactive, environmental and landlord services and manage the completion of remedial works covered by Blackwood insurance policies, liaising with insurers, contractors, other Blackwood team members and impacted customers.

You will be qualified to a minimum of HNC level in Construction Management or equivalent and have at least 2 years’ experience of running and organising construction or repair projects. Team working, communication skills and an understanding of current safety legislation is essential as is a full UK driving licence.

We ask that all applicants read the Job Pack available on the careers page of our website. Blackwood are committed to diversity and inclusion and as an accredited Disability Confident Employer, we will interview all disabled candidates who meet the minimum requirements for the post.
