Community Engagement Officer

A place to create moments that matter Salary: £33,130 per annum, pro rata (including regional uplift) Location: Ballard Court, Camberley (100% onsite) Permanent, part time, 17.5 hours per week minimum between 9am-5pm, Monday - Friday Thousands of families across the country rely on us for a safe, affordable home. And as the housing crisis deepens, the work we do has never been more important. It's this belief - that everyone deserves a place to call home - that drives everything we do. Together, we find new ways to understand and champion our customers, support them and drive positive change. For a career that means more and makes a meaningful impact on society, this is the place to be. About the role Always motivated to achieve brilliant standards of service, our Specialist Housing Partners (Independent Living Housing Officer) are a visible presence in their schemes, ensuring the effective management of tenancies. This involves working closely with the allocations and lettings team to onboard new customers. Moving into a new scheme is an important life experience and your role will have a positive influence on our customer journey as you'll be supporting customers to maintain their independence for as long as possible. You'll play a key role in encouraging resident engagement throughout their tenure in the scheme by building a sense of community. Sometimes things don't always go to plan, so you'll also support customers to manage their rent accounts including service charges (including taking cases to court as a last resort), manage anti-social behaviour utilising a multi-agency approach as required, resolve customer complaints effectively and use appropriate legal remedies to ensure tenancies are ended efficiently and in line with legal and regulatory requirements when necessary. This is a role where you can make a real difference in helping our customers live independently for as long as possible. You'll develop strong relationships with internal stakeholders and external partners and build strong community bonds to make moments that matter every day.
