Redhill, Surrey
Permanent - Part Time
£9,600 per annum (pro rata)
Raven is a Housing Association with 6,500 homes working across East Surrey and Sussex. We build homes for those that can’t meet their housing needs in the market and in doing so we help them change their lives. Our work goes far beyond that of a traditional landlord and extends into support for individuals and their communities. We are also a growing and increasingly complex social business with a turnover of £50m, and a further £50m a year spent on building new homes.
We are currently recruiting for a part-time Housing Choice Officer to assist in managing & engaging with applicants nominated to Raven by local authorities, to our empty properties. Within this role, you will provide general advice and support to applicants seeking housing and dealing with correspondence, enquiries and personal callers as required. You will assist with properties viewings with successful applicants, as well as tenancy terminations and empty property related administration. This will include recording tenancy agreements on the housing management system, and the maintenance of appropriate records.
Our ideal candidate will have worked within an administrative role previously, will be IT literate, and have previous experience using Microsoft packages including MS Word and Excel. Along with your strong administrative skills, you will have the ability to learn new IT systems and be highly organised, with the ability to multi-task and work under pressure. Previous experience of working in a Social Housing environment would be advantageous.
The successful candidate must hold a valid UK driving licence & have a vehicle available for work purposes. The candidate must be available for work on a Thursday & Friday each week.
Closing date: 4th October 2018.
