The Role

Being the Compliance Manager for Kitt, you will take full ownership of statutory and Health & Safety compliance across the entire Kitt portfolio. The mission is to ensure Kitt and its clients are safe and compliant with all relevant health, safety, and building regulations.

You will be:

• Acting as the Designated Competent Person for all Health & Safety matters, fulfilling legal requirements
• Systematically triage and process conducting risk assessments and arranging remedial actions that come from the tests
• Defining and auditing the statutory compliance requirements for all Kitt‑managed buildings and demised spaces, ensuring the robust framework is followed.
• Managing and holding accountable all third‑party compliance contractors, driving service level improvements and working with our in‑house team to reduce reliance on external parties
• Providing expert counsel and actionable advice to internal teams (Operations, Client, Projects, and Logistics) on all compliance and H&S matters
• Driving in‑house control and strategic oversight of our compliance requirements, enabling informed decision‑making across the portfolio.

About You

You will have:

• Essential: NEBOSH National General Certificate (or equivalent) as a minimum requirement.
• Proven Experience: Demonstrated success in a similar multi‑site compliance, statutory maintenance, or Health & Safety management role, ideally within a commercial office or Facilities Management portfolio.
• Expert Knowledge: A deep understanding of UK statutory compliance requirements (e.g., Fire, Water Hygiene, Asbestos, Gas, Electrical).
• A Strategic Approach: The ability to move beyond day‑to‑day administration to define and implement long‑term compliance strategy, significantly reducing portfolio risk.
• Excellent Communication: The confidence to provide authoritative expert advice and challenge decisions at all levels of the business.

Why Kitt?

The world of work has shifted forever. As people everywhere prioritise purpose over their paychecks, company culture has been thrown into the spotlight. But the problem is, too many companies are showing up to work in bland, cookie‑cutter offices. We’re leading this change.

Real company culture can only be built in‑person, in the real world – and for it to be authentic it needs its very own, personalised space. That’s why we create offices as unique as the brands and the people who work there. We’re long‑term culture partners to our clients long after they've signed the lease and chosen the paint colours.
