Job Description
We’re looking for a Knowing our Residents Manager, the person responsible for the delivery of resident engagement services and who will help us to better shape what we do at CHL by understanding who lives behind our front doors.
You will act as a driving force in delivering the understanding we need to ‘Get to Know’ our residents better. This will involve leading projects and initiatives that will put to work the insights gained from our daily interactions with customers, right through to feedback from our more involved consultations.
You will lead on the development of resident‑focused service improvements, driving forward change initiatives across the business based on customer intelligence, and apply the feedback and insight CHL gathers to shape and change the business.
You’ll need to have your ear to the ground and understand the role everyone plays at CHL when it comes to knowing our residents and be able to inspire others to deliver strong, empowering and worthy resident engagement.
We want someone to champion how this insight can be best used to shape our services, based on customer intelligence and insight. You’ll instil a sense of vision, purpose and ambition. You will ensure the voice for our residents is heard, and that the business understands their needs by knowing who they are and understanding our communities.
If you’re ready to become connected to our residents and communities and can work collaboratively, then it’s time to apply for our Knowing our Residents Manager role.
