About You
We're looking for a good communicator with the ability to adapt your communication style to suit individual needs. You may have experience of housing management; however, your attitude, values and behaviours are just as important, and you may be able to demonstrate the transferable skills we're looking for.
Our customers are diverse and can be vulnerable, the role can be very challenging so you will need to have a flexible, caring, understanding, proactive and positive approach.

You are also required to hold a current valid driving licence and have access to an appropriately insured vehicle.
