This job is for 2 days per week. We’re hoping to attract candidates with experience in Local Authority Housing and/or Environmental Health teams for a temporary project aimed at improving collaborative work within the regions
The role of project coordinator will suit candidates with a background in Housing or Environmental Health. The project officer will be expected to work in an allocated region in England to establish a way for the Private Sector Housing teams to work together in a collaborative way to share intelligence and resources. This project must end in February 2025 and the project officers will be asked to assist with producing an exit strategy or to apply for future funding opportunities. We hope to employ at least one person in each of the 9 regions but will consider employing people in a part time capacity or for a short period eg 3 months. The role involves reaching out to colleagues at team leader and Head of Service level to establish ways to work together with colleagues in neighbouring authorities and across other departments and external stakeholders. The ideal candidate will be a supporter of sharing intelligence and will have creative ideas on how to implement a regional and national structure to help Housing teams become more intelligence led. The candidates can work from home but there will be some travel to meetings within the allocated region and to work with the team to facilitate the sharing of best practice across all regions.
