Are you looking to join a growing, values-led organisation with a clear social purpose?

At SettleParadigm, we’re proud to be the largest housing group in the region, managing over 30,000 homes across Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, and Hertfordshire. Everything we do is about delivering excellent services, high quality homes, neighbourhoods we can be proud of and maximising the number of new affordable homes we build.

If you're ready to grow your career in a supportive, inclusive environment while helping to shape stronger communities, we’d love to welcome you on our journey. Together, we’re building a better future. As we continue to grow, we’re strengthening our Asset and Legal support functions - and that’s where you come in.

About The Role

We’re looking for an Asset Legal Coordinator to support our Disrepair & Intervention team. This is an important role that helps us manage legal cases properly, keep our records accurate and make sure we’re meeting our responsibilities to residents.

You’ll be the person who brings everything together from preparing legal packs, checking documents, chasing missing information, to ensure cases move in the right direction. You don’t need to be a lawyer, but you do need to be organised, careful with detail and confident working with sensitive information.

If you enjoy structured work, like things to be accurate and complete, and want a role where what you do genuinely matters, this could be a great fit.

Key Responsibilities

• Preparing disrepair disclosure packs in line with the Pre‑Action Protocol
• Compiling non‑access packs for EICRs, LGSRs and Stock Condition Surveys
• Checking documentation to make sure it’s complete, accurate and follows internal processes
• Liaising with internal teams to gather missing records or repairs history
• Submitting packs to the Legal team and ensuring everything is correct before it goes
• Tracking and monitoring cases, keeping clear notes and chasing updates
• Escalating delays or issues to the Disrepair & Intervention Manager
• Providing day‑to‑day admin support to help the team run smoothly

You’ll do well in this role if you’re someone who:

• Likes things to be organised and accurate
• Enjoys working through documents and checking details
• Communicates clearly with colleagues, residents and external partners
• Can manage several tasks at once without losing track
• Is comfortable handling sensitive information
• Takes pride in doing things properly and following processes
• Works well with others and isn’t afraid to chase or question something when needed

Must haves:

• Experience in an administrative or support role, ideally in housing, repairs, compliance or legal
• Experience preparing or collating case files or legal packs
• Strong attention to detail and confidence checking documents
• Understanding of data protection and experience redacting sensitive information
• Good organisational skills and ability to meet deadlines
• Experience working with internal teams to gather information
• Ability to track case progress and provide updates
• Good written and verbal communication skills
• Confident using Word, Excel and Outlook

Nice to haves:

• Knowledge of the Pre‑Action Disrepair Protocol
• Awareness of housing compliance basics (gas safety, electrical safety, stock condition records)
