2 months ago


Surrey, United Kingdom PA Housing Full time

A little bit about what we are looking for...
We are seeking a dedicated Fire Remediation Resident Liaison Officer to lead the communication efforts for our fire safety remediation projects and external wall cases, ensuring that our residents are well-informed and supported. This role is essential in liaising with our customers and service providers for major fire remediation works in and around our customers' homes.

We embrace the future of work with our hybrid working model, offering you the flexibility to thrive in your role. You'll have the opportunity to blend the best of both worlds, spending approximately 2-3 days per week in the office with the remainder being from the comfort of your own home. However bear in mind during your probation and training, we may request more office presence to ensure you feel fully supported and equipped for success. Your well-being and confidence in your role are paramount to us, and we're committed to providing the flexibility you need to excel. Of course if you'd prefer to be in the office more, then that is completely fine with us too

As part of our commitment to promoting work-life balance, we offer an optional 9-day fortnight scheme*. With this arrangement, you have the opportunity to compress your hours into nine days, allowing you to enjoy a bonus day off every fortnight. It's our way of empowering you to achieve greater flexibility and recharge, helping you be your best self.
