This is a fantastic Temp to Perm opportunity to join a forward-thinking, growing contractor making real, sustainable improvements to local social housing.

Key Responsibilities:

Community & Tenant Engagement: Act as the main face of the project, delivering introductory letters, conducting resident inductions, and explaining upcoming retrofit works (insulation, ventilation, heating upgrades).

Survey Coordination & Choice Selections: Carry out pre-start home assessments, guide residents through choices where applicable, and record special access or vulnerability requirements.

Access Management: Work hand-in-hand with site supervisors and sub-contractors to schedule property access, keeping installation programmes strictly on track.

De-escalation & Issue Resolution: Proactively resolve resident concerns, manage access refusals with empathy, and address day-to-day queries on-site before they turn into formal complaints.

Documentation & Handover: Maintain detailed communication logs, complete customer satisfaction surveys, and guide residents through final property sign-offs.
