Poplar HARCA is an award-winning housing and regeneration organisation with a national reputation for innovative urban and social regeneration.

An exciting opportunity has arisen within our Repairs Team for a Property Inspector.

The Property Inspector will ensure that all homes are warm, safe, dry, and meet regulatory standards. They will also help to deliver a service that is efficient, cost-effective, and resident focussed. The Property Inspector will carry out Property MOT, front door and quality assurance inspections. They will be responsible for ensuring that every home on a defined patch has a valid, up to date Property MOT and front door inspection, and that follow on actions from these inspections are managed to completion.

  • Plan and schedule inspections
