Wandsworth, United Kingdom Richmond and Wandsworth Councils Full time

The role
We have a vacancy in our Housing Assessment Team and are looking for a capable and ambitious individual to join Richmond and Wandsworth Council’s Shared Staffing Arrangement. You will be a team player, articulate and organised and able to work under pressure to deliver a first class housing assessment service.

Whilst previous experience of working in a housing assessment or other busy front-line public-sector role would be advantageous, it is not essential. To succeed in this role, you will:

- Be emotionally mature and confident to work with people facing difficult housing circumstances;
- Be organised in your work and able to keep on top of changing priorities;
- Be able to discuss complex cases with other professionals and explain rehousing prospects.
- Be able to write case notes and assessments of a high standard.
- Be a motivated and engaged team player

In addition, we offer a comprehensive range of staff benefits such as membership of the Local Government pension scheme, childcare vouchers, new technology scheme, interest-free loans on annual travel cards, discounts with many leisure activities, restaurants, shops and other establishments.

Your health and wellbeing is our top priority. Should you become unwell due to Covid-19 during the recruitment process we would very much appreciate receiving an update from you as soon as possible.
