The role is responsible for addressing housing needs in the Borough by managing all aspects of the Council’s social housing register.

A full driving licence would be advantageous.
This role requires a disclosure and barring service check as it is working with children or vulnerable clients.
We have adopted the core values of Teamwork, Innovation, Effectiveness and Respect (TIER).&nbsp; The values and their underlying behaviours, demonstrate our commitment to providing excellent customer care, working in a joined-up way, always showing respect and looking at innovation and forward-thinking solutions.
