• Housing management, tenancy management or community-focused experience.
• Strong customer service and relationship-building skills.
• Confidence handling challenging situations and resolving problems.
• Excellent communication, organisation and stakeholder management skills.

Desirable

• Knowledge of housing management and tenancy legislation.
• A mix of Private and Social Housing experience
• Experience within regeneration, estate management or new-build environments.
• Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle.

Be Kind, Do the Right Thing, Love New Ideas, Celebrate Diversity, Keep Our Promises, and Pull Together.

What We Offer

• 30 days annual leave, plus bank holidays
• Two paid volunteering days each year
• Up to 10% pension contribution
