As a Project Officer within the team you will manage your own caseload, oversee adaptation and building work in clients homes from initial visit to final inspection.

You will need to have good computer skills, strong written and verbal communication and problem solving abilities. It is essential that you are able analyse, collate, prepare and present information to support service delivery, evidence performance and continuous service improvement.
Excellent customer service skills are important to us and you must be able to negotiate with and assign contractors and successfully manage projects to completion within agreed timescales.
Knowledge or awareness of housing adaptation services for disabled people, design or construction would be helpful but is not essential as full training and support will be provided.
A Lot to look forward to

So we've created a development process that lets you grow in the way that suits you - whether
