Do you want to help build affordable, quality homes for those who need it most and build your career at the same time? Are you interested in starting a career in affordable housing development or looking for a new challenge?

If this sounds like you, keep reading.

At Stonewater, we have some of the most significant growth targets in the sector and we’re looking for a Project Officer to help support to drive forward our development programme.

We understand how desperately these new homes are needed and our second strategic partnership with Guinness and Homes England has secured a further £250m, to build 4,180 additional affordable homes by 2029, giving us the long-term security we need to focus on building quality homes for those who need them most.

Our targets are significant and mark us as one of the biggest developing Housing Associations in the country, with a ground-breaking approach to environmental standards, but it’s not just numbers. Our staff truly live our values and are able to fully bring their whole selves to work every day. Putting customers at the heart and working in a collaborative, proactive and solution-focussed way makes our colleagues our biggest asset.

If this sounds like an organisation and team that you want to be part of, we want to hear from you.

Although this is a home based role, it will involve some occasional travel to development sites, therefore we ask that you are located within the region and must have a valid driver’s license.

The ideal candidate will:

* Have an interest in or knowledge of housing is preferred, especially affordable housing.

* Be confident, independent, and pro-active in your approach to your work and relationships with colleagues.

* Have a customer focussed approach to your work.

* Have excellent administrative and problem-solving skills with excellent attention to detail.

* Have excellent verbal and written communication skills, able to contribute to the production of written reports and ensure effective project management to internal and external stakeholders.

* Have good numerical and organisational skills to enable you to prioritise and manage a varied workload.

Appointment to this role will be subject to a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Service Check, satisfactory references and possession of a valid Right to Work document.
