Dorchester, United Kingdom Dorset Councils Full time

You will be part of a newly formed team (October 2022) who sustain tenancies and overcome barriers to finding and sustaining accommodation.

The postholder will establish, negotiate and work with private sector landlords and letting agents to proactively develop the supply of private rented accommodation for applicants who are at risk of homelessness or are homeless.

The postholder will negotiate with prospective landlords and letting agents to property match our current applicants to private rented sector accommodation, based on their needs.

The successful postholder will lead the liaison between landlords and customers on the Dorset Council Landlord offer and explain what is expected from both landlord and tenant under the scheme to ensure a positive discharged under Prevention, Relief and Main Duties.

The successful postholder will help to co-ordinate the suitability and offers to households into private rented sector properties whilst working with both the applicant and caseworker(s) to ensure appropriate and suitable discharged of accommodation.

The postholder will be the single point of contact for Landlords and will answer queries with a view to helping address any ongoing tenancy issues, involving the Tenancy Sustainment Officers where appropriate.

As a Landlord Liaison officer, you will ensure that the landlords of all homes secured through the Dorset Council Landlord Offer understand their obligations under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, the Housing Act 2004 and that the requirements of the Housing Health and Safety Rating System are fulfilled in partnership with the Housing Standards Team.

Hybrid working options but will need access to a car (essential car user).

This is a full time role at 37 hours per week.

This post requires significant travel. You must have a vehicle (or transport we deem suitable) available for use as needed.
