Hi, we’re Kitt—a managed office operator that helps companies find, design, move into, and thrive in their perfect space. A Kitt office is more than just a workspace; it’s a place that brings people together, elevates culture, and helps businesses do their best work.

Kitt is a dynamic, fast-paced startup, meaning we're constantly evolving and executing quickly. This isn't your typical corporate setting, it's an environment where every individual has a direct, visible impact on our growth and the success of our clients.

To thrive here, you need to be someone who can keep up with the pace, is proactive, and is ready to get stuck in from day one. We value people who are comfortable navigating ambiguity, embrace new challenges, and are eager to take ownership of ambitious goals. If you're looking for an opportunity to build, innovate, and see your work come to life rapidly, you'll feel right at home.

The Role

As the Compliance Manager at Kitt, you will take full ownership of statutory and Health & Safety compliance across the entire Kitt portfolio and in partnership with our AI powered platform, Reeve. 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 including for internal staff working both on and off site
• 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.

Interview Process:
1. One way video interview
2. In person interview with Charlotte Vaughan-Reynolds (Head of Operations) and Glynn Allen (FM Consultant)
3. Final round interview with Simon Warner (COO)

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. 

We’re disrupting an industry that has long needed a shake up, and with our sights set on helping every brand find their dream home, the future of office space and culture is in very good hands
