**Job introduction**:
Brighton & Hove is a great place to live, learn, work and visit. Our diverse and vibrant community is passionate about the city and there’s a shared commitment to celebrating and promoting all that makes Brighton & Hove so unique.

We are committed to delivering an outstanding service to our residents and to making the Tenancy Team within our Housing, Neighbourhood and Communities Directorate the first choice for Housing Officers to work.

If you are looking to work in a flexible and forward-thinking organisation after a period of time away from the workplace, or you are an experienced Housing Officer looking for an exciting new challenge, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

For an informal discussion, please contact Graham Davies - Housing Manager on 01273 293218

**About the role**:
You will have a relevant professional qualification or proven experience of working in housing at this level. Your experience will have given you an excellent knowledge and understanding of the full range of housing management services, including the relevant legal context. You will be comfortable in managing a diverse and complex caseload in a high demand service and will be a strong collaborator with a range of teams in a multi-agency setting.

You’ll be working in a directorate that is dedicated to empowering people from different communities and backgrounds to come together, live well and thrive, supported by our city-wide work on fairness, inclusion, and engagement. You’ll have an ability to communicate with a diverse range of stakeholders, a deep understanding of the needs of our different communities and residents, and the skills to ensure accessibility and inclusion in your work.

We have a full time vacancy available, with flexible working including working from home to support a positive work / life balance. We can also offer fully office-based arrangements as an option. Our diverse team is based across the city in one of our three housing offices and at our Housing Centre based in Moulsecoomb. On the days you are working in the office you will be in a spacious and welcoming working environment, with a friendly and supportive team.

In return, we can offer you a competitive salary, training and qualifications, career progression with the opportunity to become involved and lead on bespoke projects, flexible working, a generous annual leave allowance with the opportunity to buy extra days, staff discounts, and admittance into the Local Government Pension Scheme.
