This is a key role for someone with a deep understanding of the Building Safety Act, a commitment to the Golden Thread, and the ability to drive best practice across multiple stakeholders. If you want to be part of a team shaping the future of building safety in social housing—this is an opportunity not to miss.

The Role

You’ll work as part of a specialist Building Safety team responsible for ensuring our HRBs meet the highest standards of compliance throughout their lifecycle. Day-to-day, you will:

• Lead the handover and registration process for new-build HRBs, ensuring all required information is collated for the Building Safety Regulator.

• Review design and construction stage documentation to confirm compliance and identify any gaps or risks.

• Support the development of Safety Case Reports, Building Assessment Certificate submissions, and Gateway 2 & 3 documentation.

• Maintain and enhance the Golden Thread of Information, ensuring accurate, accessible, real-time data across all HRBs.

• Work with consultants, project teams, and operational colleagues to embed robust building safety processes and transparent governance.

• Champion quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and consistent building safety standards across the organisation.

• Provide technical advice and clear communication to internal teams, external partners, and residents where required.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong working knowledge of the Building Safety Act 2022, HRB requirements, and associated regulatory guidance.

• Proven experience managing building safety or compliance within housing, construction, fire safety, or a related technical field.

• A solid understanding of design, construction, and occupation-stage safety requirements for residential buildings.

• Analytical and highly organised, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage large volumes of technical information.

• Clear, confident communicator able to translate complex legislation into practical, operational steps.

• Skilled in information / document management tools (e.g., SharePoint or similar platforms).

Experience working on Big 6 housing portfolios or across multiple HRB schemes at design and construction stage is highly desirable.
