  • Maintenance concerns
• Assist clients in understanding repair priorities and recommended improvements.

Administration & Reporting

• Complete inspection reports accurately and timeously.
• Compile detailed fault reports and corrective action plans.
• Prepare material requirement lists for quotation purposes.
• Liaise closely with office staff to ensure technical information is accurately translated into quotations.
• Maintain job records, compliance documentation, and site reports.
• Ensure all paperwork related to inspections and Certificates of Compliance is completed correctly.
• Communicate progress, delays, and technical issues effectively with management and office staff.

Health & Safety

• Ensure compliance with occupational health and safety requirements.
• Promote safe working practices on all sites.
• Conduct risk assessments and identify unsafe conditions.
• Ensure teams operate using the correct PPE, tools, and procedures.
