WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Manage complex Building Regulation applications under the Building Act 1984, ensuring compliance across safety, sustainability, and accessibility standards.
• Oversee investigations into dangerous structures and demolition notifications, ensuring public safety.
• Support and lead enforcement actions to uphold the Council’s statutory responsibilities.
• Contribute to mentoring and development of junior surveyors and help shape service delivery as we continue to modernise.
