It’s all for better public services. Better processes. And a better quality of life, for everyone. Join us, and Swindon will be better with you.

We are seeking an individual to join Voids Team to provide administration support for a team of Surveyors and Co-ordinators responsible for the turnaround of empty home repairs for social housing.

As a Voids Apprentice, you will record and monitor empty properties on our portal and spreadsheets, and manage data for processing invoices from energy providers, contractors and other utility companies.

The post holder will have strong communication skills, be focused and enjoy working as a team. This is a key supporting role to Surveyors and Co-ordinators to ensure our homes are ready for new tenants as quickly as possible.

You will be raising works orders onto a Housing database system which will require a good level of accuracy and the ability to manage your time effectively to ensure these are raised within tight timescales to ensure homes are ready to re-let within our key performance targets.

In this role you will also be analysing and monitoring council tax charges that are applied to void homes to ensure that the charges are accurate.

In addition to these duties, you will record the energy recordings for empty homes onto an external portal for our Energy contract that provides costs savings including energy switching for homes to more focused energy saving services for Social Landlords.

**Your next package**

Please see our **Rewards and Benefits** offer for more details.

For Swindon to thrive in the future, we need to lay the foundations now. It’s why our regeneration and transformation programmes are already underway. So, you’ll be joining us at an exciting time on our journey. We’ll look to you to share your knowledge, influence decisions and drive real, positive change. With your contributions, we’ll achieve our vision of a prosperous, re-vitalised Swindon by 2030 together. And you’ll be proud to say it was made better with you.
