About the Role
We are seeking a Building Surveyor to join a busy Facilities Management team responsible for supporting the maintenance and management of a large and diverse property portfolio across North Yorkshire.
This role would suit a Building Surveyor with experience in reactive and planned maintenance who enjoys a varied workload and working closely with property, maintenance and operational teams to ensure buildings are safe, compliant and well-maintained.

Key Responsibilities
- Manage and oversee reactive maintenance projects across a diverse property portfolio.
- Assist in the delivery of planned maintenance programmes and lifecycle replacement works.
- Undertake property inspections and condition surveys.
- Identify building defects and provide appropriate recommendations for repair.
- Prepare specifications, schedules of work and cost estimates.
- Manage contractors on site and monitor the quality of completed works.
- Ensure compliance with relevant health & safety, statutory and building regulations.
- Support property improvement and refurbishment projects.
- Liaise with internal stakeholders, contractors and external consultants.
- Maintain accurate property records and assist with asset management initiatives.
