About the role 

We are now recruiting for two permanent Housing Officers – one on a full time and one on a part time (18.5 hours per week) basis to join our Neighbourhoods team across the Oxfordshire location. 

 

The full time patch will cover North Oxfordshire and the Banbury area.

 

The purpose of the role is to support GreenSquareAccord Limited’s aim of valuing our customers by meeting housing and related needs.

 

You will manage complex tenancy issues including property conditions and ASB cases. You will work independently in challenging situations and with changing priorities striving to add value to everything you do.

 

You will provide information to new and existing customers which will enable them to manage and sustain their tenancy and promote empowerment of customers to play an active role in shaping standards and service across GreenSquareAccord Limited.

 

About you

You will have a demonstrable record of delivering excellent customer service and experience of working in a customer facing environment.

 

Excellent administration and organisational skills, with an ability to prioritise effectively and manage own demanding workload is a strong requirement for this position.

 

In addition, you must have exceptional communication (written and verbal) and interpersonal skills to suit a variety of audiences including customers, shareholders, councillors and other external agencies and partners.

 

You may be required to travel to different sites within the business, therefore a full clean driver’s license is essential.
