Housing Officer
Summary
What you'll do
As a not-for-profit housing organisation providing more affordable homes for Londoners, we're on a mission to work better together for our residents and make London home for those who live in our capital, whatever their personal circumstances.
We're looking now for people with previous experience of customer service to join our operations team, which has recently been refreshed to ensure we're set up in the best way to deliver the things that matter most to our residents.
How you'll do it
As a housing officer, you'll play a vital role in enhancing our residents' overall experience of living in one or our homes. You'll strive every day to understand the factors influencing customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction and use that insight to drive continuous improvement in service delivery. You'll be responsible for ensuring that the basics, including repairs, cleaning and grounds maintenance, are executed with excellence for those living in the homes under your management.
If you're looking for the next step in your career and the chance to make a genuine difference, one of these roles could be for you.

Most importantly, you'll be someone who genuinely puts customers first, has a passion for our vision and mission, and makes our values visible every working day.
