A FOOT IN THE DOOR WITH FUTURES

We’re on the hunt for an administrator to join our supportive and hardworking Programme Development Team on a fixed term contract.

You’ll have real flair for maximising opportunities and a genuine interest in social housing, demonstrating daily your organisational skills as you effortlessly glide through the variety of tasks this role offers.

You’ll have the perfect platform to showcase the skills you’ve gained in your career so far, supporting with legal compliance, right to buy and right to acquire along with assisting in the management of defects and processing applications.

Most of all you enjoy building relationships, working in collaboration with internal and external partners as we continue to put customers at the heart of everything we do.

Sounds like me, so what are you offering? 

It’s an exciting time of change at Futures Housing Group! We’re currently moving to a state-of-the-art, flexible new workspace.

This could be an elderly parent, a friend with mental health issues, or a parent carer who looks after a disabled child, to name a few.

We know balancing work and caring is tough and that’s why we have an extra focus on supporting team members in this situation. To help, we organise regular virtual support groups, have an Employee Assistance Scheme with 24/7 counselling, and offer Flexible Working from day one, helping you to stay happy at work and at home.

We’re award-winning. We love to win and we want to be known as a centre of excellence for customer service, transformation, development, innovation.
