- Lead resident consultations and promote active resident involvement and engagement, including organizing and facilitating resident meetings.
- Collaborate with Housing and other teams to assist in relocating residents to suitable accommodations as needed.
- Identify and support vulnerable tenants through direct liaison and referrals to Octavia's care and support team or external agencies.
- Effectively manage expressions of dissatisfaction and complaints, striving for resolution at the first point of contact and identifying areas for service improvement.
