The Role
At Cloch Housing Association, our vision is simple: to deliver homes and services which exceed customer expectations. As we continue to invest in our homes and strengthen our services, we're looking for an Asset Officer to join our Property Services team and help shape the future of our housing stock and communities.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with technical or construction skills, such as a quantity or building surveyor, someone from a trade background, or an existing housing property officer who wants to make a genuine difference and be part of a supportive and ambitious team. You will help us ensure that the 1,500 homes we provide across Inverclyde are a strong basis for our customers to thrive.
The Property Services team delivers a broad range of services, including reactive repairs, void management, landscape maintenance, planned and cyclical maintenance programmes, compliance activities and asset management. We also provide a factoring service to around 300 owner occupiers across Inverclyde. We have recently undergone a significant amount of change, including the introduction of new software and a new Director, and are now looking to consolidate this progress while continuing to drive improvement in everything we do.
As Asset Officer, you'll work closely with colleagues, contractors and customers, playing a key role in:
- Asset management and investment planning
- Planned and cyclical maintenance programmes
- Compliance and building safety
- Contractor and project management
- Contract administration
- Procurement and value for money
- Property performance and data analysis
- Service improvement and innovation
This is not a role where you'll be confined to one specialism. It offers the opportunity to develop broad technical experience across a range of property services activities while helping to shape services that make a real difference to people's lives.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
