Hull City Council’s Housing Access Service is a multi-disciplinary function which provides comprehensive housing advice designed to prevent homelessness and rough sleeping. This Service Area supports customers in finding realistic and sustainable housing solutions which meet their needs from a range of options and is responsible for allocating available council homes.

We are looking to recruit to a full-time and part-time Housing Allocations Officer. These posts will be based in the Allocations Team within the Housing Access Service. This team is responsible for letting the council’s available homes efficiently and within the Council’s Allocations Policy. The successful applicants will be responsible for advertising and allocating available properties. This will include but is not limited to - carrying out customer interviews and accompanied viewings, visiting empty properties, and ensuring customers are kept up to date with the process and given appropriate advice. They will work to ensure that properties are let in a timely and effective way, minimising rent loss to the Council.

The team operates on a citywide basis and officers may need to work from different locations throughout the city, according to the requirements of the service. The role will involve some lone working.

This role is perfect for those wanting a career in social housing; if you are able to work flexibly within a team, demonstrate a positive attitude to change, self-development and learning, please get in touch.
