You will be a key member of the Asset Management Team and will work alongside other, experienced Asset Management Surveyors.

North Star is a group of housing associations operating across the North East and North Yorkshire.  We build and rent high quality affordable housing to meet a variety of needs, including 650 units of specialist supported housing.  We are committed to creating homes and building futures as well as investing in people at every level.

 

Polaris, also called the “North Star” is a constant in the sky.  It’s more than just a single star; it’s a natural beacon that’s been used to navigate for centuries.  It provides direction to those who are lost and without any other form of conventional navigation.  Stars shine, and we look to them for guidance and inspiration.  Our organisation is full of North Stars’.  Bright people who sparkle, achieving great things, and rising stars who shatter expectations, raise the bar and are great to be around.

 

We are growing, leading the way with new approaches and thriving as a business.  We were voted No 1 landlord 2018 and No 2 in 2019 ( 24Housing), and were the first Housing Association in England to attain Investors in People Platinum standard.  We only employ exceptional people, and invest significantly in the development of everyone.  People are at the centre of the business, supported by a culture of relational leadership where everyone has a strong voice and influence.

 

We are looking for a motivated, enthusiastic, customer focused person to join our Asset team.

 

You will be responsible for managing a varied range of planned and cyclical maintenance contracts including Energy Efficiency improvement works from inception to completion. You will be undertaking Stock Condition Surveys, gathering stock data and contributing to a robust long term planned maintenance programme.

 

You must have excellent communication skills, be able to travel between sites and have a passion to develop both yourself and the service.

 

Previous housing experience is not essential but you will have a good technical knowledge of building construction and contract management.

 

In return we will invest in your development and support you to grow and learn.  You will also get great opportunities to be innovative and contribute to the overall running of the business.
