We have a vast number of employees, and provide support to clients from all over the country.

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. You will be an experienced supported housing professional who is familiar with leading, supporting and managing teams (in a hands-on way) to help those experiencing multiple disadvantage and complex needs to overcome barriers to achieving greater independence. You will have an in-depth knowledge of best-practice, including assertive outreach when working with vulnerable people or families facing homelessness, who require support with mental-health, substance misuse, a history of offending and other needs. Using your knowledge and skills to help us create one of the most effective outcomes-focused services in the sector, adhering to the Making Every Adult Matter principles (MEAM). You will be familiar with and have experience of effectively supporting teams to work in a strength-based and trauma informed way.

Drawing on your knowledge of safeguarding, housing benefit, Universal Credit and mental health, drug and alcohol specialist interventions to support your team to perform at the highest level, meeting and exceeding the expectations of internal and external stakeholders.

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. Salary The Specialist Housing Partner (Independent Living Housing Officer) spot salary is £29,580 per annum for applicants who fully meet the requirements of the post. Applicants, who do not meet all the requirements of the post, will start 5% or 10% below the spot salary. Plus a regional uplift of £3,550 per annum. About you You'll need experience in delivering housing management services, along with a solid understanding of tenancy management. Ideally, you'll have a CIH Level 3 Certificate in Housing or be willing to work towards obtaining it. You should have a proven track record in managing anti-social behaviour and a strong knowledge of rent collection processes and the legal frameworks around income recovery. With a passion for delivering a first-class customer experience, you'll thrive on challenges and be focused on achieving positive outcomes for customers while maintaining accuracy and high performance.
