North Star is looking for a principal contractor to manage and oversee contracts for Responsive Repairs and Void Maintenance.Background - North Star is not a direct labour organisation and as such all works are completed by third party contractors.

For clarity we are looking to award to one sole contractor to operate both of these contracts and are not looking to split them into separate lots.
