Full-time
Location: Bournemouth
Pay: £35,000-£42,000 depending on experience
Benefits: Company Car
 
DWP Housing Partnership is a well-established private landlord based in Bournemouth, managing a portfolio of over 3,000 properties. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for an experienced Maintenance Manager to lead our Re-Let operations and play a key role in ensuring our properties are ready to a high standard for new tenants.

 
This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll manage a large team, oversee property turnaround, and ensure compliance, quality, and efficiency across all re-let activities.

 
The Role
As our Re-Let Maintenance Manager, you’ll take ownership of preparing void properties for new tenants. You’ll lead a team of around 35 operatives, coordinate contractors, and work closely with internal teams and local councils to ensure properties are ready on time and to standard.

 
You’ll report directly to the Head of Maintenance and play a crucial role in maintaining quality, compliance, and operational performance.

 
What You’ll Be Doing
Property Readiness & Compliance

  • Ensure all certifications (EPC, Gas, NIC, Asbestos) are in place before handover
  • Liaise with contractors to meet deadlines
  • Arrange asbestos surveys where required


 
Inspections & Tenant Interaction

  • Carry out pre- and final inspections of properties
  • Manage tenant expectations, charges, and deposit deductions
  • Handle disputes and agree practical resolutions
  • Coordinate repairs and prioritise re-let schedules
  • Support tenants with post move-in issues


 
Team & Operational Management

  • Lead, support and develop a team of operatives
  • Conduct appraisals and manage performance
  • Oversee fleet vehicles, maintenance and tracking
  • Review invoices, monitor costs and ensure efficiency


 
Health & Safety & Quality

  • Ensure all works meet Health & Safety standards
  • Carry out site visits to monitor progress and compliance
  • Address structural or regulatory concerns


 
Coordination & Communication

  • Keep accurate property records
  • Work closely with the Lettings Manager on property readiness and timelines


 
What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience in property maintenance or property management
  • Strong leadership experience managing teams in an operational environment
  • Good understanding of Health & Safety and maintenance best practice
  • Excellent organisation and problem-solving skills
  • Confident communicator, able to handle challenging conversations
  • Full UK driving licence


 
About You
You’re someone who:

  • Takes ownership and gets things done
  • Can balance hands-on involvement with team leadership and works well under pressure
  • Stays calm under pressure and manages multiple priorities
  • Builds strong working relationships across teams and with tenants
  • Has high standards and takes pride in delivering quality work


 
Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a growing and established property business
  • Lead a large, impactful team
  • Company vehicle and fuel cart provided
  • Varied role with a mix of office, site, and people management work


 
Additional Information
This role includes a mix of site visits and management responsibilities. While some physical activity is involved (such as inspections and occasional manual tasks), the focus is on leadership, coordination, and delivery.
