About the Role:
As a Customer Liaison Officer you will be proactive and customer-focused individual to support the smooth delivery of our works by managing and enhancing the resident journey throughout the project. This is a hands-on role that involves engaging with residents on a daily basis — checking in to provide updates, answering any queries, and ensuring they are fully informed about the works taking place in or around their homes.

The role also requires accurate and consistent logging of information such as daily progress, resident feedback, and any issues raised. You will work closely with the Site Manager and Assistant Site Manager, acting as a vital link between the site team and the residents. At times, you may also be required to liaise directly with clients, supporting clear communication and helping to uphold the highest standards of service and professionalism. This role is ideal for someone with excellent interpersonal skills, a calm and organised approach, and a genuine commitment to delivering a positive experience for residents.
