What we need you to do
You will be responsible for the day-to-day tasks of the team and will manage and coordinate the workflow, ensuring the highest standards of customer care and service, and you will manage the Relationship Co-ordinators.
You will manage any high-risk or complex tenancy management cases, for example housing fraud, complex needs, and cases were there is a need for a more senior level of decision-making; and monitor, delegate, and plan workloads to ensure efficient and effective support is provided.

35-hour week pilot
Since June 2024 we have been piloting a change to our normal full-time, 37-hour 5-day week. Over a 12-month period we are piloting a shorter 35-hour week (for the same pay as before) where staff work a full day Monday to Thursday, and finish the working week at 1pm every Friday. It’s just a pilot at this stage while we evaluate its impact on our staff, our tenants, and the service we provide, but if successful we will consider a permanent move to this way of working in 2025.
