**About us**

Our Client is looking to fill a number of different positions within their Organisation, there will be some opportunities for hybrid working, some will be both from office and hybrid and some office based.

They are a private and social housing agency currently working with 150 Councils, Housing Associations and Supported living providers across the United Kingdom.

Their aim is to help reduce the Housing Crisis as the UK has a massive Housing shortage problem with almost a million people needing to be housed.

These tenants are on Universal Credit and have been in temporary accommodation for months and even years.

Our Client try to find properties all over the UK that can house these tenants and move them from Temporary & Emergency Accommodation to a permanent accommodation.
