Join Our Team as a Data Officer!
It’s an exciting time to join the Assets Team at Cannock Chase District Council. We’re looking for a Data Officer who is a strategic and analytical thinker to maintain and build upon recent investment in data collection for our stock. You’ll be joining Cannock Chase District Council’s Housing Property Services team at a time when your data insight can make a real and lasting impact on our homes, residents, and services.
If you’re someone who takes ownership, solves problems, and wants to see the real impact of your work, this is a great opportunity to step up.
You will be part of a close-knit, professional team that’s passionate about delivering a first-class service for our residents. This is a new role, giving you the autonomy to help shape how we deliver our services.
About Us:
Cannock Chase Council currently manages a housing portfolio of approximately 5,100 properties. We are proud to deliver both a new build programme and a planned investment programme of over £8m to repair and improve existing housing stock in order to provide a quality service and outcome for our residents.
Our relatively small stock is set against the beautiful backdrop of Cannock Chase National Landscape.
We have secured funding to improve Cannock town centre which will compliment the West Midlands Designer Outlet Village situated a five minute drive away.
Cannock Council are committed to the climate emergency and have ambitious plans to significantly reduce carbon emmisions and improve energy efficiency.
What you will be doing:
A typical day for you could include:
* Leading the strategic management and development of housing asset data.
* Producing dashboards and reports that shape how we plan, invest, and deliver housing services.
* Analysing data to guide planned works, policy, procurement, and decarbonisation.
* Maintaining high data quality, ensuring compliance with housing regulations and audit standards.
* Engaging with colleagues and contractors to ensure robust, accurate data flows.
* Providing support through performance metrics, KPI development, and value-for-money analysis.
You’ll play a key role in making data a foundation for everything we do.
About You:
We are looking for someone enthusiastic, motivated, and with a strong understanding of housing data and systems. You’ll be detail-focused, collaborative, and committed to driving service improvements through data-led decision-making.
Essential requirements for this role include:
* Experience managing and analysing complex datasets, ideally in housing or asset management.
* High-level Excel and Power BI skills and ideally experience with asset management systems.
* A clear understanding of data governance, decency standards, and compliance in social housing.
* A proven ability to create engaging dashboards and reports for a range of stakeholders.
* Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
* GCSE’s in Mathematics and English at Grade C or above or equivalent vocational or academic experience.
* A Level 4 qualification in Data Analysis or the willingness to work towards one.
* A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle.
