Join our growing Estates and Asset Management Team

INTRODUCTION

ERMC is seeking capable and motivated Stock Condition Surveyors to join our growing Estates and Asset Management Team.

This is an important role supporting the collection, review and management of property condition data across residential property portfolios. The successful candidates will undertake property inspections, stock condition surveys, component assessments and asset data collection to support long-term investment planning, compliance, maintenance programming and good estate management. The role is primarily site-based, with only a small proportion of time spent in the office for administrative tasks.

We are interested in candidates who are already qualified as a Domestic Energy Assessor, able to complete RdSAP assessments and produce Energy Performance Certificates. Where a strong candidate already has stock condition surveying experience but is not yet qualified as a DEA / RdSAP Assessor, ERMC will also consider supporting the right person through the required training and accreditation pathway. Please note that our commitment to training is for the full-time position only. For the part-time position, we do require someone who is already a qualified DEA / RdSAP Assessor.

This role would suit someone who enjoys practical site-based surveying, understands residential property, has strong attention to detail and wants to develop within a supportive, professional and growing Isle of Wight business.

We are looking to appoint a full-time permanent position and a part-time position on a six-month contract only.

ABOUT ERMC
