• Provide clear, insightful reporting and performance analysis to support compliance governance, budgeting and strategic decision‑making.
• Monitor changes in legislation, industry guidance and best practice to ensure continued compliance across the estate.

• A background in electrical engineering, electrical compliance or building services, with experience applying compliance principles across a broad range of building systems and statutory compliance disciplines.
