About the Role
As an Area Housing Manager within Nottingham City Council Housing Services, you will be responsible for leading a dedicated team to deliver high-quality tenancy and estate management services across a defined geographical area. This is a key leadership role focused on improving housing outcomes, neighbourhood standards, and the overall quality of life for tenants and leaseholders.
You will manage and motivate your team to provide a customer-focused, responsive service that addresses issues such as anti-social behaviour, tenancy breaches, estate maintenance, and safeguarding concerns.
Working closely with elected members, partner agencies and local communities, you will help shape and deliver housing services that reflect the diverse needs of Nottinghams residents. You will also take an active role in community engagement, promoting tenant involvement, inclusion, and empowerment.
The role requires strong leadership, sound judgement, and the ability to manage complex issues while meeting financial and operational targets. Youll also contribute to service development, respond to emergencies and support the City Housing Manager in achieving strategic priorities. This is an opportunity to make a tangible impact in communities across the city.

Previous experience gained in a fast-moving, pressurised, housing management or customer-facing environment dealing with complex issues and competing priorities.
