Full Job Description
You'll join the Asset Management team within Haringey's Placemaking and Housing directorate, working closely with colleagues across Housing Property Services, Building Safety, Procurement, Legal, Finance and other enabling services. The team is responsible for delivering the council's annual housing investment programme, valued at up to £40 million, and is committed to improving the quality, safety and sustainability of homes across the borough. Collaboration is at the heart of how the team works - you'll be supported by experienced project managers, senior leaders and technical specialists, and will contribute to a culture focused on continuous improvement, resident-centred delivery and strong partnership working.
You bring proven experience managing complex construction or housing investment projects, ideally up to £10 million in value, with a strong understanding of building contracts, contractor management and major works programmes. You're confident working with residents, resolving complaints and communicating clearly with a wide range of stakeholders, including senior managers and elected members. You combine strategic thinking with strong organisational skills, attention to detail and the ability to maintain high-quality project administration. You'll be comfortable managing budgets, navigating contractual issues and ensuring compliance with statutory and leaseholder requirements. A relevant qualification - such as an HND, degree or specialist construction/project management accreditation - is essential, along with a commitment to delivering value for money and excellent outcomes for residents.
Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work - the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We'll be celebrating all this and more as the "rebel borough" when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.
Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey's people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.
At Haringey Council we are committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included, and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits of a diverse workforce so welcome applications from all ethnicities and communities so that we continue to make a difference to our residents and community. Our benefits package includes a leave entitlement of 31 days + bank holidays, potential hybrid working opportunities, health and wellbeing support, a generous local government pension scheme and a range of discount schemes across leisure and culture that provide both financial and money-saving discounts.
