Here’s the facts about the role:
As a Repairs Supervisor, you’ll line manage a team of multi-disciplined trades staff, making sure they deliver a first-class, value for money repairs and maintenance service. You’ll ensure that all works carried out are completed to a high standard and within agreed service level agreements (SLAs). You’ll do this by regular work in progress and post-work inspections, and will conduct regular 1-1’s/90-day reviews for your team, making sure any training needs are identified. You’ll manage any absence and performance issues where needed, and will also recruit new staff and take necessary action to make sure your team remain fully skilled, flexible and high performing, to carry out their roles.
With your focus on delivering a great customer experience, you’ll work with your team to ensure an exceptional level of quality assurance is provided. But, when on the occasions where complaints are made, a full investigation is carried out to resolve matters quickly. You’ll be tasked with making sure the right action is taken to reduce complaints in future, the quality of the works improves, and customer satisfaction increases. You’ll also be responsible for making sure that all works are carried out in line with best value, taking responsibility for the costs within your team.
You'll have strong leadership skills with experience of managing trade operatives. You’ll have the ability to lead a team, and will be a confident communicator who remains professional and calm under pressure. It would be advantageous to have knowledge of property construction and problem diagnosing. To succeed in this role, you'll be driven to meet/exceed targets and continually improve our service.

Offers are subject to a satisfactory DBS check.
Interviews will take place at our Portsmouth office on 8 April (subject to change)
