Housing jobs in the public sector

Housing jobs muddy the demarcation between health jobs, cleansing jobs, and financial jobs, since the needs for all three arise in the public housing industry.

For example, recruiter Eden Brown is offering a post for an Asbestos Surveyor in Manchester, to work with a housing association there. Is it a housing job or a health job? Joining a team of asbestos surveyors, the successful applicant for this particular job will carry out type 1, type 2, and occasionally type 3 surveys, working with one other surveyor and reporting to the asbestos manager. Requirements include a minimum P402 qualification and prior experience with asbestos in the housing industry. This is a contract/temporary/freelance position, offering up to £16.8 per annum.
