About The Role

We’re looking for a Housing Development Manager who has a passion for delivering an exceptional internal customer experience, driving continuous improvement and living the ethos of #OneTeam.

As a development professional, ideally with experience from the affordable housing sector, you will know that our overall viability is key since the landscape for niche and supported housing providers like Salvation Army Homes is a challenging one.

You’ll be a key part of our development team and will be responsible for management and successful delivery of the organisation’s acquisition and disposal programme.

This is a hybrid role, working from home with occasional visit to our London and Bolton offices and occasional visits to front line services across England.

If you are people focused and can demonstrate our culture of being ambitious, collaborative and fun, we would love to hear from you.

 

About You

In return for helping to transform lives, we’ll give you access to some great benefits including:

  • 26 days annual leave (plus bank holidays) rising to 31 days
  • An extra day off on your birthday
  • Pension (up to 6% employer matched contributions) with life assurance
  • A High Street discount scheme (great savings both on and off-line)
  • Healthcare Cashback scheme
  • Discounted Private Medical Insurance
  • Occupational Sick Pay

 

About Us

A registered social landlord and one of the leading providers of supported housing in the UK, Salvation Army Homes is dedicated to transforming lives by providing accommodation and support for some of the most vulnerable members of society - mainly people with complex needs and/or experiencing homelessness.

Salvation Army Homes is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and vulnerable adults and expects all employees and volunteers to share this commitment.

Our aim is to work with individuals to build on their strengths, creating person centred, individualised strategies and plans that transform lives, support recovery and enable positive behaviour. In order to succeed, however, we need the right people in place. Our workforce is one of our greatest assets, but only by recruiting the very best can we continue to deliver comprehensive, good quality housing services, support and resettlement services to our residents. That’s where you come in.

As an equal opportunities’ employer, Salvation Army Homes is committed to the equal treatment of all current and prospective employees and does not condone discrimination on the basis of age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, race or ethnicity, religion or belief, gender identity, or marriage and civil partnership. We invite and welcome applications to apply for Salvation Army Homes’ opportunities without concern of bias or discrimination.

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.
