Successful candidates will be placed in one of the following teams depending on their experience and the requirements of the service: licensing inspections; licensing enforcement; complaints. There may be opportunities in the future to work in different teams. A competence-based grading system rewards experienced officers for their expertise and supports newer-qualified officers in developing their careers. You will be offered a point on the pay scale based on factors including your experience and level of qualification. Once in post you can progress to the top of the scale through annual increments and assessed levels of competency. Why Bristol City Council?

Housing Support Register Co-ordinator (Distinct Pathways)

We are The Housing Network (THN), a private Limited Company with a purpose. We exist to provide 'More than a Roof', because when life is at its toughest, we believe everyone deserves a safe and stable place to rebuild their lives. Homelessness is a vast and complex issue that does not have a single solution. In understanding that reality, we've learned the importance of perspective; appreciating that if we continue to innovate, collaborate, and give our best, we are playing our part in making a vital difference. We are a team that is absolutely committed to innovate, excel and be dependable in all that we do. Working hard together to achieve our mission of providing Better Accommodation, Better Support, Better Partnerships, and as a result Better Business. Role Overview - What is it? To lead one of our local teams in the delivery of various supported housing services, including our new Active Opportunity Pathway (AOP) for those experiencing multiple disadvantage / severe multiple disadvantage and/or temporary accommodation for individuals or families.
