Join our team: Make a difference in Housing Solutions
As demand for housing services continues to grow, we're expanding our team and seeking people who are committed to preventing homelessness and providing vital support to those in need. You'll play a crucial role in assisting individuals and families facing housing crises, working to find sustainable solutions and prevent homelessness before it occurs.
​
Do I have the right skills and experience?
​
While we’re ideally seeking applicants with experience in similar housing or homelessness roles, we’re open to applications from people who have no previous experience, but are looking to develop their career. Some experience and skills you may have include:
-
Experience of working with vulnerable groups.
-
Able to share how you’ve identified problems and developed solutions.
-
Can negotiate confidently.
-
Supportive, patient, and determined.
​
What sets us apart is our new career framework, designed to enhance the career development and pay progression for our Housing Solutions Officers. This framework offers a clear pathway for professional growth and development, ensuring that you have the support and resources you need to thrive in your role and make a lasting difference in our communities.
There’s plenty of other benefits of working at the city council, including:
-
An excellent pension – everyone who works for us can join the national Local Government Pension Scheme, widely regarded as one of the best available.
-
Great holiday benefits - Most roles include 28 days annual leave every year on top of public (bank) holidays, increasing to 33 days after five years.
-
Family friendly policies including enhanced maternity, adoption and paternity support and a childcare subsidy.
-
Access to an award-winning employee benefits programme that includes a health cash plan as well as retail and entertainment discounts.
We believe that no one should be faced with a night on the streets. If you feel the same and want to be part of our team, apply now.​
