• Build positive relationships with residents, contractors and key stakeholders.
• Handle resident enquiries and complaints, ensuring excellent customer service throughout.
• Maintain accurate records using internal systems.
• Ensure compliance with all relevant housing legislation and legal requirements.

To be considered, you'll ideally have:

• Previous experience in residential property or housing management.

• Competitive salary of 33,588 - 37,093 per annum.
• ECU allowance (subject to eligibility).
• Excellent pension scheme with enhanced employer contributions.
• 28 days annual leave, increasing with service, plus bank holidays.
• Westfield Health Cash Plan.
