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.

You'll play a central role in improving asset performance, customer satisfaction, and value for money across our housing portfolio.
We're looking for a highly skilled building surveying professional with substantial experience in asset management, contract management, and project delivery, ideally within a social housing environment.
