Wildheart Residential Management Appoints New Technical Director
Wildheart Residential Management has appointed James Capper as its new Technical Director.
With recent changes in legislation through The Fire Safety Act of 2021 and Building Safety Act of 2022, James will prove instrumental in providing expert direction for ensuring building safety and compliance is achieved for homes in Wildheart's well maintained portfolio. A key aspect of James' role will be to spearhead the training of internal teams on building safety matters, in the knowledge that in-house expertise will deliver better value to clients than engaging external contractors.
With over a decade of sector experience, James joins Wildheart from a national managing agent, where he was Director of Building Safety and Compliance. A recognised industry expert on building safety and the management of taller buildings, James is a member of both The Property Institute and The Fire Safety Institute, regularly contributing to industry training events.
James said: "I am excited to be taking up the new role, which will give me the opportunity to spend more time providing specialist advice to clients and being actively involved in projects. I am looking forward to joining the experienced Wildheart team and adding value to the diverse national property portfolio that is under management."
