About the role
We're looking for an experienced and technically minded Building Manager to play a pivotal role in the management of Indigo, our flagship high-rise residential development.
This is a unique opportunity to make a significant impact, ensuring the building remains safe, compliant and exceptionally maintained. As the lead for all building-related matters, you'll oversee health and safety, building compliance, maintenance and contractor management, helping to protect this important asset and ensure it operates to the highest standards.
No two days will be the same. You'll oversee critical building systems, manage planned and reactive maintenance programmes, coordinate specialist contractors and ensure compliance with a wide range of statutory obligations. Working collaboratively with colleagues and external partners, you'll identify opportunities for continuous improvement and drive excellence across every aspect of the building's operation.
