The Boaz Trust is a Manchester-based charity that started 20 years ago as an outworking of the founder's Christian faith. Last year we provided trauma-informed and person-centred housing and support for more than 200 people facing homelessness after seeking safety in the UK through our floating support and 17 properties that we manage.
This new role is a key part of our strategy to increase our capacity to provide accommodation for more people in the Greater Manchester area working in partnership with GMCA and a range of local and national stakeholders. You will report directly to the CEO and Board and be part of the Senior Leadership Team building on our unique experience of providing both housing-focused and floating support for people who have recently been granted refugee status, as well as those who have been refused asylum and who are facing homelessness.
In the current climate, this work is needed more than ever. We are therefore looking for an experienced and dynamic leader to develop our accommodation services. The ideal candidate will have experience / knowledge of;
- procuring and managing accommodation services (including shared housing)
- social housing standards, regulations and other relevant housing legislation
- project, contract or budgetary management
- managing a team of staff and contractors
- building relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, to increase impact and sustainability.
We are looking for someone with ambition and drive to build on our experience and reputation as well as getting involved in the day-to-day delivery of housing management in a small team.
This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to use their experience to make a big difference to the lives of hundreds of people and to shape the future direction and strategy of the organisation.
The successful candidate will need to be supportive of the Christian ethos and values of the charity. However, diversity, equity and inclusion are also important to us at Boaz Trust so we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.
