Building Safety Projects Manager Required_

My client is an established, privately owned business.

The firm is part of a wider property group, which is freeholder of c1600 buildings across the UK, principally blocks of flats.

More than 40,000 individual leaseholders' own properties across this estate.


In response to ongoing scrutiny, and out of a genuine concern for its leaseholders my client is involved in a long-term programme to understand the safety status of its estate, ensure that known defects are rectified proportionately and that funding is secured.


They now require a Building Safety Projects Manager, within their Property team, who will coordinate the programme to analyse buildings, specify and tender remediation contracts and secure funding, within a contractual framework which protects the freeholder.

These functions are delivered through a network of external lead consultants, lawyers, managing agents and other professionals.

The Building Safety Projects Manager will require the oversight and effective coordination of these professionals to ensure delivery.

Where a Pledge Developer takes responsibility for remediation, the successful Building Safety Projects Manager will co-ordinatethe negotiation, contractual framework and provide oversight, again using external professional advice.
