At Bromford Flagship LiveWest (BFL), our purpose is simple: to invest in homes and relationships so people can thrive. We believe every customer has a fundamental right to a home that is safe, secure and warm — and we will never compromise on delivering homes that meet and exceed these standards.
Remote Surveying Specialist
We are now looking for a Remote Surveying Specialist to join our Healthy Homes team, playing a key role in improving customer outcomes through fast, accurate and effective case assessment. In this role, you will be responsible for the initial triage and desktop assessment of Housing Health cases, helping us respond quickly and appropriately to issues such as damp, mould and disrepair. Using photographic evidence, customer insight and your expertise in building pathology, you will diagnose defects remotely and determine the most effective course of action. Where possible, you will create works packages without the need for a site visit — and where necessary, you will ensure cases are escalated for full survey. You’ll engage directly with customers to understand their concerns, explain findings in plain language, and ensure they feel supported throughout the process. A key part of your role will be ensuring compliance with Awaab’s Law and the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS), using your professional judgement to prioritise cases and drive timely resolutions. Working closely with the wider Healthy Homes team, you’ll help manage the triage pipeline, reduce backlog, and ensure cases are progressed efficiently and accurately.
