Location: Wood Lane, London / Hybrid

Hours: 1 full time 35 hours per week, x 1 part-time variable

Contract: Permanent

**Salary**: £26,425 per annum

About the role:
To support the growth of the organisation and continue the commitment to providing excellent customer service, we have created new posts of Customer Services Advisor to manage our first contacts with residents. Reporting to a Customer Services Manager you will be part of a Customer Resolution and Engagement team responsible for ensuring our residents receive great customer service and including resolving queries and organising repairs.

Key responsibilities will include:
*Being the first point of contact for residents, applicants, contractors and staff regarding housing matters and responsive repairs, raising accurate works orders, keeping records up to date and ensuring that residents are kept informed of progress and any agreed actions.
*To prepare purchase/works orders for property related services for authorisation. To manage costs, matching invoices with orders where necessary, to ensure value for money and prompt payment to suppliers, contractors, and consultants.
