Development Officer

Hours: 35 hours (full-time with hybrid working)

Location: ISHA, 102 Blackstock Road, Finsbury Park, N4 2DR / Hybrid

Salary: £39,670

Contract: Permanent

As Development Officer, the main part of the role will involve assisting the new Business Manager with appraisal of development opportunities across ISHA's core and key working boroughs to meet the organisations business development growth. This will comprise review of potential projects and communication with multiple agencies to include Landowners, Estate Agents, and developers as well as internal and external stakeholders like local authorities plus our regulator and funding body, the Greater London Authority. The role also requires working closely with the development team both Delivery and Sales to the agreed development programme to achieve handover and completion.

In addition to the above, there are other aspects of the role you will be required to undertake and involve reporting and monitoring of defects and latent defects across our projects to ensure these are resolved to a satisfactory conclusion and outcome, whilst ensuring excellent customer services are delivered in line with ISHA's core values. You will also help the team to take on the role of raising Purchase Orders and processing departmental invoices for payment to our approved suppliers within the agreed timeframe.

You

We are seeking an individual who is a good team player and has the ability and drive to contribute to the team tasks and learn new things. The development team is a busy environment so ideally, we are looking for a candidate who can work closely with the team and other departments within the organisation and has the tendency & flexibility to adapt to the changing environment.

This is a supporting role and therefore good communication is required as you will be engaging with multiple and a variety of people and clients at all levels both internal and external. Your support is crucial to ensuring a smooth and functional department which in turn will help to deliver our development programme, whilst providing housing to serve and meet local community needs.

Don't feel you meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that some candidates are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single requirement. At ISHA, we are dedicated to building an inclusive workforce, so if you're excited by this role but your experience doesn't quite align perfectly, we encourage you to apply anyway. You just might be the right candidate for this, or other roles, because of your transferable skills.

Staff Benefits

We'll offer you a generous pension scheme (up to 10% employer matched contributions and a death in service benefit), 29 days annual leave (increasing after five years' service), eye care vouchers, a cycle to work scheme and other great benefits (see attached). We have an evolving wellbeing offer, that is being developed following employee feedback, and we will invest in your professional development with on-going training and career development opportunities.

This role is based at our Head Office but there is some flexibility to work in a hybrid way if preferred.

About ISHA

We are a small but ambitious housing association at a critical juncture. Our ambition is for the communities we are anchored in and exist to serve, and we have done and achieved much over the past few years. But in these challenging times we know we'll achieve nothing unless we are equally ambitious for own our people.

Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions. We strive to build a more diverse organisation, where everyone feels empowered to bring, and be, their best self to work.

We can't be a brilliant landlord if we don't partner with brilliant colleagues. Could you be one of them and be trusted to make the difference?

If this sounds exciting, we want you on our team. Please do apply.

Deadline: 09:00am on Wednesday 17 July 2024.

Interview: 25 & 26 July 2024 in person at 102 Blackstock Road

We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBTQ+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to our residents so that passionate commitment to customers, respect for everyone, pride in Team ISHA and trusted to make the difference remains at the heart of everything we do.
