Based in North London, our client is looking for a Sheltered Housing Manager to join their Homelessness Team.
Your work will focus on encouraging and supporting the continued independence and well-being of the sheltered housing tenants by monitoring, enabling and meeting the necessary support needs to assess, review and respond to ongoing support needs of sheltered housing tenants appropriately. The role will develop and maintain constructive relationships with sheltered tenants, carers, partners, service providers and any one from the wider community that is involved with the sheltered scheme. As a manager you will also carry out health and safety checks to maintain the integrity of the building and safety of people within the blocks. You will work closely with the estate management team to provide an enhanced housing management service to sheltered housing tenants. To apply for this role it is absolutely essential that you have an understanding of the Council's Valuing Diversity Policy both in terms of the needs of vulnerable sheltered tenants particularly those from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds, and in terms of the workplace. And a good understanding of the Safeguarding policy and how it relates to the role of the Sheltered Housing Manager.
The initial contract will run until the end of May but it is expected to extend. The rate will be between £24 and £25/hr (umbrella).
