**About the team**

There is a great role now available for the right person here at the RAF Families Federation.  Can you help RAF personnel and families who may be experiencing issues related to service life - it may be accommodation, moving house, needing support for their children or themselves? You might have a background in the RAF or the other services - or come from a military family.  This experience would help but is not the only relevant background - roles where you can show experience in supporting others and problem solving on their behalf is key to this position.

An understanding and empathy of the service lifestyle is key to being successful in this role. We need you to be a confident and persuasive communicator as you will be liaising with the relevant accommodation agencies highlighting concerns and issues. A proactive problem solver, you will take ownership of these issues and provide timely feedback to RAF families with information on the progress of their cases. You will need to have a high level of IT proficiency covering areas such as Microsoft Office, SharePoint and databases (we use Salesforce) along with excellent (and creative) writing skills to assist in the production of accommodation related articles for use in the RAFFF magazine Envoy, on the RAFFF website, and in other publications.

We will support you with flexibility in your working hours as there will be occasions when you will have to undertake travel to create and maintain productive relationships with various RAF personnel, housing contractors and suppliers.
