More about your role
As a Community Housing Coordinator, you will play a vital part in supporting our Homes Plus operations by delivering high‑quality administration and back‑office services. You will work closely with teams across Communities, Living Plus, Lettings & Marketing, and Community Safety, ensuring that our customers, colleagues and partners receive an efficient and reliable service. You will also provide support to other areas of Homes Plus when required, giving you the chance to build a broad understanding of how our services work together.
Your role will involve a wide range of administrative responsibilities, including preparing documents, managing mailshots, organising meetings and hospitality, maintaining records, and supporting key processes such as decants, key management and on‑call rotas. You will be involved in housing management administration – everything from tenancy changes and mutual exchanges to permissions, landlord references, specialist landlord arrangements and aids and adaptations.
More about you
You will bring experience from a support or administrative role where you have managed busy workloads and provided a dependable and proactive service. You will be highly organised, able to anticipate what needs to be done, and confident in managing competing priorities without compromising on accuracy or quality. Your positive attitude, professionalism and strong communication skills will ensure you work effectively with colleagues and customers alike.
You will be naturally helpful, with a calm and solution‑focused approach when handling enquiries – whether in person, over the phone or through written correspondence. You will be comfortable working independently but also enjoy being part of a wider team, contributing to shared goals and supporting others when needed. A keen eye for detail, good IT skills and a willingness to learn new systems will help you thrive in this role. Experience in social housing or housing‑related administration would be an advantage, but it is not essential if you can bring the right attitude and transferable skills.
A basic DBS check is mandatory for this role.
