Location: Colchester

Prime Appointments is partnering with a growing consultancy seeking an experienced Building Surveyor to join their team. The company works closely with housing providers and property owners, delivering detailed inspections, safety reports, and structural assessments aligned with the latest building safety regulations.

This is a hands-on position that combines site inspections with technical reporting. You'll be out on-site identifying defects, collaborating with Fire Engineers and Building Safety Consultants to prepare Building Safety Case reports and fire strategies. The role also involves supporting and mentoring junior team members to ensure projects progress smoothly.

What you'll be doing:

Conducting thorough property surveys and site inspections

Identifying and diagnosing structural issues such as cracks and water ingress

Writing detailed condition surveys, risk assessments, and safety reports

Supporting the development of Building Safety Cases and fire strategies

Advising clients on maintenance plans and compliance requirements

Mentoring junior colleagues on site and promoting best practices

Staying up to date with current legislation and industry standards

What we're looking for:

Background in building surveying or structural engineering

Strong ability to identify and explain building defects clearly

Experience with risk assessments and safety-focused reporting

Knowledge of structural modelling and load path analysis

HNC, degree, or equivalent qualification in a relevant discipline

Experience with Building Safety Case reports is a plus, but not essential

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys a blend of practical site work and detailed technical reporting and wants to contribute to important safety-led projects. The company offers flexible working arrangements and strong support for professional development.
