The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is establishing the new Building Safety Division (BSD) with the intention of creating high standards of safety for high-rise buildings and enabling people to feel safe within their homes. Working with residents and the industry to make sure everybody has a voice, BSD will oversee changes to the safety and performance of all high-rise buildings and raise industry professional standards year on year.
You will conduct audits into Local Authorities and Private Sector Building Control Services across England, delivering risk based audits of RBAs to ensure competence within the agreed portfolio. You will monitor and manage the performance of current cases and escalate risks and issues to the Audit Manager. You will also be prepared to instigate and support the enforcement process and procedures, ensuring the consistent application of the Enforcement Guidance tool in different settings to make the correct risk based decisions. In some scenarios, you may come across issues which will require enforcement actions.
