Who we are

Our Inspection team is one of the largest in the UK, working alongside our registered builders. They inspect homes during construction to check that they are being built to a standard we are happy to insure, a crucial part of our internal risk-management process. Every day, we help drive quality in house building, making a real difference to the industry and homeowners.

Why work with us?

  • Career progression and training

    We invest in your future by providing industry-leading training through our in-house academy - most of our senior managers have been promoted from within.

  • Flexibility

    You’ll have full control of your diary, with the freedom to plan your inspections in a way that works best for you. 

  • Work-life balance

    Your working day starts when you leave home, not when you arrive at your first site and we won’t ask you to work weekends.

  • Industry-leading benefits

    Enjoy a tax-efficient company car to make site visits easy as well as access to all NHBC company benefits.
