The role also contributes to promoting community safety and resident wellbeing. Safeguarding is a core responsibility. The postholder will identify and report safeguarding concerns in line with organisational policy, liaise with social workers, support providers and health professionals, refer vulnerable tenants to appropriate services, and participate in multi-agency meetings and risk management plans where required. The role requires a strong customer service focus, acting as the first point of contact for tenant enquiries, complaints and housing-related issues. The Housing Officer will maintain a visible presence across their patch, carry out home visits, encourage resident engagement and participation, and ensure all actions and communications are accurately recorded on the housing management system.

This is a rare opportunity to join a market-leading property brand and take the reins of a high-performing regional hub.

Culture of Excellence: Enjoy a professional, modern office environment with a commitment to work-life balance through hybrid working. Your Mission As the Head of Property Management, you will be the heartbeat of the office. Your goal is to foster a culture of high performance and continuous improvement. Key Responsibilities: Empower & Develop: Mentor and lead a structured team through established Team Leaders, focusing on talent retention and HR excellence. Strategic Oversight: Ensure the highest levels of compliance (ARMA/RICS) while driving innovation in service delivery. Business Growth: Work alongside key stakeholders to identify new opportunities and ensure client satisfaction remains at the gold standard. Commercial Management: Take full ownership of office budgets, forecasting, and P&L performance. Who You Are We are looking for a visionary leader who is passionate about the property industry and even more passionate about developing people. Experienced: A proven track record in Property Management at a Senior or Associate Director level. Qualified: IRPM/RICS qualified (or equivalent).
