About the role:

Housing | Community-Focused | Make a Real Difference

Are you organised, people-focused, and ready to make an impact in your community? We’re on the lookout for a Neighbourhoods & Communities Coordinator to help keep our neighbourhoods thriving, connected and running like clockwork. This is more than an admin role — you’ll be the engine behind great services, helping teams deliver outstanding support to residents every single day.

The Role:

This is a varied and rewarding position where no two days are the same. Key responsibilities include:

• Keeping things moving behind the scenes.
• Organising estate inspections, home visits, and resident check-ins.
• Supporting the team with admin, projects, and coordination.
• Making a difference for residents.
• Helping new tenants settle in with viewings and sign-ups.
• Answering enquiries and providing a welcoming, helpful reception experience.
• Driving performance.
• Producing reports and tracking performance to help the team improve.
• Making sure systems are updated and processes stay on track.
• Bringing people together.
• Supporting tenant and resident associations.
• Helping organise events, estate surgeries, and community initiatives.

What We’re Looking For:

We are looking for someone who loves working with people and delivering great customer service who can thrive in a busy environment. You will bring:

• The ability to remain calm, organised, and adaptable under pressure.
• Strong administrative and IT skills (including experience with tools such as Pivot Tables).
• Clear and confident communication skills.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving and task completion.

We are especially keen to hear from you if you’ve worked in housing or community services — but most importantly, you care about making a difference.

Why Join Us?

At the core of our organisation is a commitment to community, inclusion, and opportunity. In this role, you will:

• Work in a team that genuinely supports residents.
• Be part of an organisation that champions equality and diversity.
• Contribute to a forward-thinking council focused on sustainability.
• Enjoy flexible and agile working opportunities.
• Grow your career with ongoing development and training.

The Impact You’ll Make:

You’ll play a key role in ensuring:

• Homes are let quickly.
• Residents feel supported and heard.
• Services are efficient, organised and impactful.

In short — you’ll help make neighbourhoods better places to live.
