About Asset Management and Property Services
Asset Management and Property Services operate as one integrated function under the Head of Asset Management and Property Services, with shared responsibility for safe, well maintained and sustainable homes.
Asset Management leads asset strategy, lifecycle planning, planned investment, technical assurance, stock condition, compliance assurance and long-term investment planning. Property Services leads responsive repairs, voids, cyclical maintenance, contractor management, operational readiness for new homes and day-to-day maintenance delivery.
The centralised administration function supports reporting, workflow tracking, document control, data quality and one version of the truth. Property Services uses this information to manage service delivery, provide operational commentary and take corrective action.
The Role
Reporting to the Property Services Manager, the Property Services Team Manager will provide senior operational leadership within the Property Services function. Two Property Services Team Manager posts will operate to the same role profile, each line-managing a defined group of Property Services Officers while supporting consistent standards across the wider team.
The role covers responsive repairs, voids, contractor performance, inspection quality, operational risk, defects follow-up, damp and mould coordination, scheme-based issues and operational readiness for new homes. Complex building pathology, systemic defects, lifecycle implications, technical assurance standards and strategic asset decisions will be escalated to Asset Management, including the Strategic Asset Manager and Property Surveyor, where required.
