Job description

As the UK's leading Social Enterprise, we move lives forward every day by building, managing and supporting thriving Communities. From new homes, social housing and student accommodation to leisure, education and Community initiatives, our work makes a positive difference to millions of People across the UK. And that takes People who care about doing the right thing. People who are ambitious, ready to grow and motivated to make a difference through the work they do.

We're looking for Colleagues who bring energy, curiosity and ownership. People who enjoy being challenged, support those around them and want to keep raising the bar. Because when we perform at our best, we create more opportunities to invest in our Customers, our Communities and each other.

Experience matters, but it's only part of the story. If you share our values and want to build a career where your work has real impact, we'd love to hear from you.

More about your role

As our Assistant Asset Co-ordinator, you will provide administrative and operational support to help deliver our fast-paced Empty Homes Recycling Programme. You'll coordinate property and compliance information, maintain accurate programme trackers and records, and work with teams across the business to make sure the information needed for property sales is complete and accurate. You'll support Property Information Forms, review property-level information and help identify queries that need further investigation.

Essential criteria

• Experience working in an administrative, property, housing, legal, compliance or asset management environment.
• Experience managing high volumes of data, documentation and accurate records.
• Experience working with a range of internal and external stakeholders.
• Experience managing multiple priorities and deadlines within a busy working environment.
• Experience using Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Office to manage information and administrative tasks.

More about you

You'll be organised, proactive and comfortable working with detailed property information while managing competing priorities. You'll have an understanding of administrative and record-management processes, alongside a broad understanding of property compliance, conveyancing and leasehold or freehold service charges.

Knowledge of NEC or C365 and an awareness of housing disposals, sales processes or portfolio optimisation would be beneficial but aren't essential.
