Your new company

In your role as a property officer, you will be working with a leading Housing Association in the Aberdeen area. You will work as part of a team to carry out property inspections in the Aberdeen City area. This is a temporary opportunity offering a contract of up to 12 weeks. You will be paid weekly via Hays.

Your new role

In your new role, you will look after a range of domestic properties in the Aberdeen City area. Dealing with queries from tenants regarding day-today repairs, you will attend property inspections each day to assess repair requirements in order to raise the repair request. For larger repairs or maintenance contracts you will visit the property throughout to assess progress before a final sign-off as per the quality standard. In addition to day-to-day repairs, you will be responsible for inspecting void properties as they are repaired and brought up to standard for new tenants. This role will require travel around the Aberdeen City area.

What you'll need to succeed

In order to be considered for this role, you will have a background in construction or maintenance and strong technical knowledge to allow you to adequately assess the repair issue. Having a trade background would be preferable, but applicants from a technical construction & property background would be considered. This role will see you interact with tenants, your wider team and external subcontractors, so strong communication skills are a must. You must be able to keep records up to date and log defects and repairs appropriately and follow a set sign-off process when the repair is complete. You must hold a full UK driving licence and have access to your own vehicle for this role - mileage costs will be paid to you for your travel to and between properties.

What you'll get in return

This role could see you secure an immediate start in a temporary contract and have a contract of up to 12 weeks with a possible extension. Joining a leading Housing Association, you will have the support of an experienced team, a working pattern of 37 hours over Monday - Friday. You will be paid a competitive rate of pay and have the opportunity to gain experience in a Property Officer role or add to your existing experience.
