Help create a place residents are proud to call home.
Are you passionate about supporting older people to live independently and thrive within their community? We’re looking for a compassionate, proactive and experienced Community Manager to play a vital role in delivering an outstanding service to residents in one of our older persons’ housing schemes.
This is far more than a housing role. You’ll be the friendly face residents trust, ensuring they feel safe, supported and connected while maintaining a welcoming, well-managed environment.
What you’ll be doing
- Providing practical support and guidance to residents, helping resolve issues and access the right services.
- Building strong relationships with residents, colleagues, health and social care partners, and local agencies.
- Identifying safeguarding concerns and managing risks appropriately.
- Monitoring repairs, maintenance, health and safety requirements, and contractor performance.
- Promoting resident engagement and wellbeing through activities and community initiatives.
- Ensuring the scheme remains safe, compliant, clean and feels like a home, not an institution.
- Maintaining accurate records and case management information.
- Supporting and supervising on-site staff where required.
What You’ll Need
- Experience in housing management and working within a residential, supported housing or older people services environment.
- Experience supporting vulnerable adults and an understanding of health and social care issues.
- Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle (essential).
- Knowledge of safeguarding, risk assessments, health and safety, and repairs reporting.
- Excellent communication and customer service skills with the ability to build trust and positive relationships.
- Strong organisational skills, able to manage competing priorities and work independently.
- Competent IT skills, including Microsoft Office.
