Are you passionate about housing and motivated to make a real difference for homeless families? If so, this is a great opportunity to join our Temporary Accommodation Service and support some of Birmingham’s most vulnerable residents.
With over 5,000 households currently living in temporary accommodation across a diverse property portfolio, the Housing Solutions & Support Service is experiencing unprecedented demand. We’re looking for committed, proactive individuals who want to help families move forward into safe, secure, and permanent homes.
What You’ll Be Doing

* Carrying out welcome visits and annual tenancy reviews
* Supporting families to secure long‑term housing through Social Housing or the Private Rented Sector
* Empowering residents to overcome barriers and take positive steps toward resolving their housing situation
* Ensuring licence conditions are met, including taking enforcement action when necessary
This role blends support, problem solving, and accountability — ideal for someone who can balance empathy with clear expectations.
What We’re Looking For
* An understanding of tenancy management, homelessness legislation, or welfare benefits
* Confidence travelling across Birmingham and surrounding boroughs
* Strong IT skills and the ability to work effectively in a fast paced, high pressure environment
* Above all, a can‑do attitude, resilience, and a genuine commitment to helping people rebuild their lives
