At Swindon Borough Council, we want our town to be the best it can be. Our ambitious vision is supported by realistic transformation programmes, with the people of Swindon at their heart. Because that’s who we’re doing it for - the communities and businesses that make our town great. As part of the Council, you’ll support a friendly local authority making decisions with real impact. 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.

Do you have a passion for housing and ensuring our customers get the opportunities they deserve?

We are looking for an experienced and committed individual to help shape our improvement journey with tenants and the Tenant Academy is a key element to help us to become a high performing social landlord.

**Your next role**

The Tenant Academy has the vision to improve the skills of our customers in a variety of ways that will enable them to engage with training, enter the job market or volunteer in a confident and meaningful way. This will include working with tenants who are engaged in improving the housing service they receive and ensuring they are able to effectively scrutinise and monitor the delivery of those services in accordance with local and national standards.

We are looking to refresh our training offer to tenants and the Tenant Academy Lead will ensure the training and opportunities delivered to tenants meets our customer and business needs.

The TA Lead will also play an active part in Housing’s Leadership Team including looking at a Workforce Strategy that meets the requirements of the Social Housing (Regulation) Act.

To be successful in this role, you will need to have a strong development and training ethos where doing the best we can for our customers is your personal commitment.

Experience of working for a social housing landlord and a relevant professional qualification is required for this role.
- You must be fluent in the English language (as a requirement of Part 7 of the Immigration Act “for the effective performance of a customer-facing role”)._

**Your next package**

Please see our Rewards and Benefits offer for more details.

As an employee, you will receive a diverse and exciting environment in which to work, encouraging creativity and innovation whilst recognising the need to support ongoing personal development and a flexible work life balance.

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.

**Your next steps**

Potential applicants are sometimes put off if they don’t meet 100% of the requirements. We think individual experience, skills and passion make all the difference, so if you meet the majority of the criteria, we’d love to hear from you.
