    As our Maintenance Specification Surveyor, you’ll work closely with the Maintenance Contracts Manager, combining your technical knowledge and practical maintenance experience to create clear, consistent specifications that help colleagues and contractors deliver safe, high-quality work right first time.

    What you’ll do 
    • Review and redesign maintenance specifications to make them clear, consistent, practical and future focused.
    • Work in close partnership with the Maintenance Contracts Manager and colleagues across development, delivery and planned maintenance.
    • Develop and manage a robust, group-wide library of specifications using NBS Chorus.
    • Bring maintenance requirements and lessons learned into new projects, products and delivery models at an earlier stage. 
    • Champion standardisation that improves quality, compliance, and the customer experience. 
    • Use your judgement to challenge outdated approaches and recommend better, longer-lasting solutions.

    Why join us
    This role could suit a technical surveyor, specification writer, repairs professional or planned maintenance specialist who wants broader influence while working as part of a supportive team. The role offers genuine ownership, broad exposure across the organisation and the chance to see your technical expertise translated into better homes and services. Be part of one of the UK’s Great Places to Work! 

    You have 
    • HNC, HND or Degree in Surveying or a Construction-related discipline
    • Strong knowledge of repairs, maintenance, and building regulations.
    • Experience of drafting or reviewing specifications and working confidently with contracts, and technical information.
    • Confidence to build relationships, influence decisions and constructively challenge ideas.
    • Clear communication skills for explaining complex requirements to different audiences.
    • Experience of NBS Chorus or a comparable specification platform would be useful.

    Stronger together
    We do our best work when we’re ourselves. That’s why inclusion, wellbeing, and our diversity networks help make Home Group a great place to work!

    The practical bits 
    • You’ll manage your own diary.
    • We typically work on a hybrid basis with time in our Newcastle office and from home. 

    What’s in it for you? 
    • Matching Pension contributions (up to 7%, with life assurance of 3x Basic Salary)
    • 34 days leave, rising to 39 (this includes bank holidays and a “me day”). The option to buy 5 more each year
