As a Customer Services Advisor, you'll be the first point of contact for our customers, contractors, and suppliers. Whether it's by phone, email, or webchat, you'll be helping people with a wide range of housing-related queries - no two days are the same!

You'll work as part of a collaborative, supportive team that handles both inbound calls and administrative tasks. We're one team, working together to deliver a seamless service to our customers - including those who may be vulnerable or in urgent need.

To set you up for success, your first six weeks of training will take place in our Dartford office, ideally on a full-time basis. This ensures you're fully supported as you build your knowledge of our systems, services, and customer care approach.

We're looking for someone who is:

• Friendly, positive, and resilient under pressure

• Comfortable switching between tasks and customer types

You don’t need housing experience - we'll provide full training. What matters most is your can-do attitude and your ability to support customers with empathy and professionalism.

We believe in agile working. After your initial training, you'll split your time between our Dartford office and working from home - typically 50/50. This gives you the flexibility to manage your time, reduce travel, and still enjoy the benefits of in-person collaboration with your team.
