The Council's property estate is extensive and diverse which includes 2,979 interests comprising 482 operational assets including town halls, libraries, schools, depots, community buildings, sports grounds and parks. Plus the non-operational and investment estate comprising 1,470 assets including surplus buildings and land, leased land and buildings, industrial estates, sports clubs and shopping centres. The role offers the opportunity to join an experienced team of professionals in a flexible hybrid working environment that will require attendance at site locations across the Borough. About You Reporting to the Senior Estates Surveyor you will be a core part of the Council's Estates Service.
