Statutory Compliance Technician
Facilities Management have an opportunity in the role of Statutory Compliance Technician.
This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in ensuring our corporate buildings remain safe, compliant and operational, supporting everyone from council staff to schools and community services.
Working alongside the Statutory Compliance Team and specialist contractors, you'll help manage statutory compliance across hundreds of properties, providing expert support to Persons in Control (PICs) while ensuring legal obligations are met.
About The Role
This is a varied position combining site inspections, compliance auditing, data management and stakeholder engagement.
No two days are the same—you could be auditing fire safety records one day, reviewing Legionella documentation the next, or supporting colleagues with compliance advice across our property portfolio.
What you'll be doing
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.
