Full-Time
I'm currently working with a well-established and growing organisation within the property services sector who are looking to appoint an experienced Contracts Manager to lead delivery across responsive repairs and voids within a social housing environment.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys a hands-on leadership role, managing teams and driving performance while maintaining high standards of safety, quality, and customer satisfaction.

The Role

As Contracts Manager, you'll take ownership of a portfolio of works, leading a small team of Site Managers delivering both responsive repairs and void projects. You'll be responsible for ensuring works are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to a high standard.

The operation is fast-paced, with c.65 responsive repairs per day and around 12 voids per week, so strong organisational and leadership skills are key.

This is also a client-facing role, so the ability to build and maintain strong relationships is essential.

Key Responsibilities

Leading and managing site teams, including subcontractors
Overseeing day-to-day delivery of responsive repairs and void works
Ensuring projects are delivered within agreed timescales and budgets
Monitoring performance against KPIs and maintaining WIP
Producing accurate reports and contract documentation
Attending regular client meetings to review performance and plan future works
Supporting contract presentations and maintaining strong client relationships
Driving health & safety compliance across all operations

What I'm Looking For

Proven experience as a Contracts Manager within social housing
Strong background in responsive repairs and voids (internal & external works)
Solid understanding of schedules of rates and price-per-property models
Leadership experience managing multiple teams and stakeholders
Strong communication and organisational skills
SMSTS or relevant qualification (or willingness to renew)
Full UK driving licence
Willingness to undergo a DBS check

What's on Offer

Competitive salary and benefits package
27 days annual leave + bank holidays (with option to buy/sell)
Company pension scheme (up to 7.5%)
Company car or car allowance
Additional perks including:
Healthcare scheme
Retail and lifestyle discounts
Paid volunteering day
Long service recognition

Why Apply?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a supportive and forward-thinking organisation where you'll be trusted to make decisions, influence delivery, and truly make an impact on communities and services.

If you're a driven Contracts Manager looking for your next challenge in social housing, I'd be keen to speak with you.
