This role is based at our Head Office but there is some flexibility to work in a hybrid way if preferred.

Requirements

We are looking for a confident individual with great interpersonal skills for this busy Housing role. If this is you, come and join us at ISHA as our Specialist Tenancy Officer.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Housing professional to join our small, but supportive, Housing Team working with ISHA’s older adults and providing an enhanced housing management service. It is an interesting and varied role for an engaging, solution-focused person, with a passion for providing excellent people-focused services, and someone who wants to add value within an organisation.

You will work closely with the external Care and Support agencies caring for our residents, to support with maintaining a safe and secure living environment and their wellbeing. This includes continuous improvement across all areas of the role, while helping to support and achieve our organisational objectives.

Some of the key responsibilities of the role include:

We are a small but ambitious housing association at a critical juncture.

Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions. We strive to build a more diverse organisation, where everyone feels empowered to bring, and be, their best self to work.

We can’t be a brilliant landlord if we don’t partner with brilliant colleagues. Could you be one of them and be trusted to make the difference?

If this sounds exciting, we want you on our team. Please do submit an application.

Staff Benefits

We’ll offer you a generous pension scheme (up to 10% employer matched contributions and a death in service benefit), 29 days annual leave (increasing after five years’ service), eye care vouchers, a cycle to work scheme and other great benefits (see attached). We have an evolving wellbeing offer, that is being developed following employee feedback, and we will invest in your professional development with on-going training and career development opportunities.

Inclusion and Diversity

We want ISHA to be a great place to work and to ensure that our communities are represented across our workforce. A vital part of this is ensuring we are a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity in all respects, including diversity of thinking. We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBTQ+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to our residents so that passionate commitment to customers, respect for everyone, pride in Team ISHA and trusted to make the difference remains at the heart of everything we do.
