Base: Tewkesbury (with travel across Bromford Flagship LiveWest geography including Lichfield, Wolverhampton and Chipping Sodbury)

At Bromford Flagship LiveWest (BFL), our purpose is simple: we invest in homes and relationships so people can thrive. We believe every customer has the right to a home that is safe, secure and warm, and we're looking for an experienced Heating Quality Assurance Engineer to help us deliver on that promise.

Supporting almost 300,000 customers across the South West, Central and East of England, BFL is the UK's largest provider of new affordable homes, delivering over 3,000 new homes every year. Alongside building homes, we're committed to maintaining the highest standards of safety, compliance and customer service.


About the role

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Gas Safe registered heating engineer who is passionate about quality, compliance and raising standards.

Reporting to the M&E Heating Service & Repair Programme Manager, you'll play a key role in ensuring our heating service and repair activities are delivered safely, compliantly and to an exceptional standard. You'll carry out both desktop and on-site quality audits, undertake pre- and post-work inspections, and provide technical support and coaching to help drive continuous improvement across our in-house teams, contractors and partners.

Although based in Tewkesbury, this is a regional role covering our operating areas across Lichfield, Wolverhampton, Chipping Sodbury and the wider Bromford geography, so regular travel is an essential part of the position.


What you'll be doing

As our Heating Quality Assurance Engineer, you'll:

  • Carry out quality audits and inspections of gas servicing, repairs and installation work.
  • Ensure all work complies with Gas Safety legislation, industry standards and BFL policies.
  • Monitor work in progress and completed works, identifying opportunities to improve quality and customer outcomes.
  • Investigate technical issues and gas-related incidents, supporting corrective and preventative actions.
  • Provide technical advice and guidance to operational teams, contractors and managers.
  • Support the delivery of Toolbox Talks, safety briefings and technical updates.
  • Produce compliance reports and analyse quality and performance data to identify trends and improvements.
  • Support the development of technical competence through coaching, auditing and training.
  • Maintain our high standards of health, safety, compliance and customer service.
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues across the business to continually improve service delivery.
  • Where operationally required, use your technical expertise to support heating repairs, servicing and installations during periods of increased demand.

What we're looking for

You'll be an experienced domestic heating professional with a passion for doing the job right and helping others achieve high standards.

You'll bring:

  • Extensive experience installing, servicing, repairing and commissioning domestic gas heating systems.
  • Strong knowledge of Gas Safety legislation, industry standards and compliance requirements.
  • Experience carrying out technical inspections, audits or quality assurance activities.
  • Construction site management experience and a sound understanding of CDM Regulations.
  • A customer-first approach with excellent communication and influencing skills.
  • Strong attention to detail and the confidence to challenge poor practice while supporting continuous improvement.
  • The ability to work independently, manage your own workload and build positive working relationships across multiple teams.

Essential qualifications

You'll hold:

  • A recognised apprenticeship and NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in Plumbing, Heating or HVAC.
  • Current CCN1 Core Gas Safety qualification.
  • Gas Safe Registered Person status.
  • Level 3 Gas Audit qualification.
  • CMDDA (Fumes Investigation).
  • Unvented Hot Water qualification.
  • COCN1 Commercial Gas qualification.
  • Relevant Health & Safety qualification.
  • Valid CSCS card (or equivalent).
  • Full UK driving licence.

Desirable qualifications

  • OFTEC qualification.
  • HETAS qualification.
  • SMSTS qualification.
  • Additional HVAC or Quality Supervisor qualifications.

Why join BFL?

This is more than a compliance role—it's an opportunity to influence quality across one of the UK's largest housing providers and make a genuine difference to the safety and wellbeing of our customers.

You'll work alongside experienced technical professionals in an organisation that values collaboration, continuous improvement and doing the right thing for customers.

If you're an experienced heating engineer looking to move into a quality assurance and technical compliance role—or you're already working in QA and want a new challenge—we'd love to hear from you.

We collaborate widely and build supportive environments.

We’re Bromford Flagship LiveWest (BFL), a place-based affordable housing provider supporting almost 300,000 customers across the southwest, central and east of England.

Our purpose is simple and honest: we invest in homes and relationships so that people can thrive. As the UK’s largest provider of new affordable homes, we deliver over 3,000 new homes each year—helping to meet growing demand and build stronger communities.

We’re a place for people determined to make a difference.

Bromford Flagship LiveWest. A place to make your own.

We’re proud to be recognised as a Great Place to Work, thanks to our inclusive, values-driven culture. We know that diverse teams bring out the best in everyone, and we are committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, supported, and able to thrive.

We are a proud "Disability Confident" (Level 2) and Menopause Friendly employer and have signed the Armed Forces covenant to support those who serve.

We encourage people from all sections of our community to apply for jobs with us. Particularly, we welcome those who have been historically underrepresented in areas of our workforce including people from ethnic minority backgrounds, disabled people and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
