One in four people in this country are disabled but most homes are designed to exclude them. We believe in designing homes and creating neighbourhoods that everyone can share and enjoy. We have 3200 homes across the country from Tyneside to Cornwall. We provide expert training and consultancy through our Centre for Accessible Environments (CAE) in-house team.
You will be responsible for delivering housing services to our tenants at Gainsborough Court and Nash Drive (Lockleaze, Bristol). This is a generic and rewarding housing management role - and a challenging one. You will be letting properties, carrying out scheme inspections, including key health and safety checks, helping tenants to keep up to date with their rent, and liaising with social services and occupational health services to ensure tenants can successfully maintain their tenancy and live independently. You will also be supporting tenants to maintain their tenancies, including managing reports of anti-social behaviour.
You will be working as part of a small team managed by the Neighbourhood Manager and will be expected to achieve stretching and ambitious targets. Tenant engagement is key to Habinteg’s success, and you will work closely with tenant representatives and tenant groups.
At times, you may be asked to travel to sites outside of your normal working area to support the wider team to carry out essential void works or sign-ups.
We are proud to be a Disability Confident Employer and welcome candidates with disabilities, long-term health conditions to apply for our roles. We encourage jobseekers from all backgrounds and experiences to express their interest, and to contact us at recruitment@habinteg.org.uk if you would like to chat to us or discuss reasonable adjustments for your application or interview process.
You will be committed and enthusiastic, thriving on the challenges of working independently and the responsibility and rewards that brings. You will have some experience and knowledge of housing management in the social housing sector, and will be committed to Habinteg’s inclusive housing mission.
Computer literacy is needed, as are sound written and verbal communication skills.
You will be flexible and agile in your approach, being able to adapt your approach to different circumstances and service demands.
