An opportunity has arisen to appoint an officer into the position of Electrical Manager who will be responsible for the delivery and management of Lift Servicing, Lift Breakdowns, Lift Renewal, and the replacement of Major Lift Components.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Manage the day-to-day delivery of a monthly Lift Service programme, lift breakdowns, and trappings.
2. Ensure that the contractor(s) adhere to the lift breakdown and trappings times as per the contract.
3. Deliver lift modernisation and refurbishment programmes applying project and contract management skills.
4. Monitor contractor’s KPI performance and ensure all lift works are carried out to a high standard.
5. Lead and conduct meetings with internal and external stakeholders, providing updates and appropriate communication.
6. Monitor budgets, including forecasting future spend and controlling overspends for lift repairs and modernisation/refurbishment programmes.
7. Manage staff in relation to work allocation, performance, and development.
8. Write up reports such as minutes and performance reports.
9. Build positive relationships with contractors and consultants to deliver a healthy lift service across the borough.
You need to have an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the Lift Industry, including relevant regulations, guidelines, and legislation, as well as practical experience delivering Lift maintenance programmes and dealing with day-to-day lift repairs.
Having some experience and knowledge in procuring lift contracts is desirable; however, you should have an understanding of the impact of the new regulations such as the Building Safety Act on the delivery of the lift service now and in the future.
The candidate must have the relevant NVQ3 Lift & Escalator professional qualifications, including EOR/202 Basic Lift Safety and EOR/205N Basic Service Lift Safety qualifications, as well as a relevant project and/or contract management qualification.
You will be required to inform, advise, and respond to residents, as a group or on an individual basis, as well as liaise and negotiate with interested parties such as contractors, developers, or professionals from other multidisciplinary areas. Therefore, good communication skills, both verbal and written, are essential.
You must also have a good knowledge and understanding of creating and using spreadsheets for the delivery of lift programmes, budget monitoring, and reporting purposes. Familiarity with Google accounts is desirable but not essential, as you will be taught how to use this format.
We are a place-based organisation, and you will be required to work in the office; however, we do offer hybrid working, which may be locally agreed by your line manager.
