**Job summary**:
We are looking for two Senior Investigation and Enforcement Advisors to join our multi-disciplinary team at the Regulator of Social Housing.

The Investigation & Enforcement team is our dedicated resource leading the resolution of the most serious situations where Registered Providers are failing to meet the outcomes and standards required of being a registered social landlord. It also handles financially stressed situations that occur within the sector, and oversees the interventions and use of enforcement powers to deliver resolution and rescue approaches in line with the delivery of our fundamental objectives. As a dedicated team it is able to provide the agile, intensive resourcing that is required in early stages of many cases to focus on getting to the root of the underlying issues, understanding stakeholders’ positions, and ensuring that early actions and interventions focus on stabilising positions while a resolution strategy is identified.

**Job description**:

You will be accountable for analysing and evaluating financial and corporate information about registered providers performance and developing, implementing and delivering effective and proportionate strategies to resolve the most serious and complex cases to determine an appropriate regulatory response. You will work with colleagues, including the in-house legal team, to agree the appropriate use of statutory enforcement or intervention powers ensuring they are employed effectively and proportionately so that the RSH's interests are protected in their use.

**Person specification**:
You will have excellent verbal and written communication skills, along with experience of managing relationships at a senior level. Working knowledge of the strategy, operations and key processes of registered providers, particularly in relation to governance, management and financial control, is also key.
