This role gives the chance to bring your skills and knowledge, put them into practice and in turn you will see the many opportunities we offer to learn new skills in the form of inspiring positive change. This role really does come to life in the description of our values – You’ll be inspiring that positive change and seeing it, everyone matters as every interaction is different, communicate clearly in order to get results and grow together because when an individual feels the reward of the role, the whole team does.

What you will need:

Ideally experience within the housing sector is desirable but not essential. What is essential is possession of a relevant HNC or NVQ at level 3 or equivalent along with GCSE’s in both English and Maths.

Landlord and tenant law and knowledge of current Welfare reform changes is beneficial but this will become part of everyday conversation once in position. Examples of dealing with debt management and anti-social behavioural concerns will aid the successful candidate.
