Description

About the role:

Gentoo is committed to holding robust and up-to-date stock condition and energy data on our homes.

This data is the foundation to ensuring our customers live in safe, decent homes for today and tomorrow and ensures investment at the right time.

Our current stock condition and energy team undertake over 6000 stock condition surveys per year in our customers' homes.

Due to a change in strategy for the collection of stock condition and energy data, Gentoo will now undertake EPC surveys of all homes using our internal team.

Where appropriate, we will look to combine stock condition and EPC surveys to minimise disruption for customers.

Gentoo is also committed to ensuring all homes achieve EPC C by 2030, and that all homes meet the Decent Homes Standard.

We have a significant investment programme in our existing homes, and getting this right, is based on the data in our asset system.

A key fundamental to making this a reality is having accurate data on our homes' energy performance and stock condition.

Our aim is to visit our homes and assess their condition as frequently as possible.

To achieve this strategy, we are delighted to be investing in and increasing our team of Stock Condition and Energy Surveyors and are recruiting an additional 3 people to join us.

Competency Qualification (or willingness to achieve) commercial energy assessment.

Experience and skills required:

Knowledge of the requirements of the Decent Homes and associated Regulatory Standards and how these relate to stock data and of legislation relating to energy performance certificates, particularly legislation affecting the social housing sector.

Knowledge of energy efficiency and environmental improvements together with associated data requirements.

Current experience and ability to accurately gather and record information for energy assessments, stock condition and HHSRS surveys, using both handheld technology and Microsoft Excel.

Produce and manage the paperwork, software and certification for energy assessments e.g., billing of clients, internal ordering etc.
