JOB DESCRIPTION

About the role

Our Independent Living teams support older people living in their own homes by providing a warm and friendly housing management service. 

We have a new opportunity for an Independent Living Advisor to join our team in Manchester for 6 months. This full-time role is ideal for someone passionate about supporting older adults in maintaining their independence and well-being.

Reporting to the Independent Living Manager, you will provide intensive housing management services to residents in our sheltered housing schemes. Your responsibilities will include building strong relationships with customers, supporting new residents during viewings and move-ins, and helping them understand their tenancy rights and responsibilities.

You will also assist customers in accessing housing benefit support or financial advice, and make referrals for assistive technology, aids, and adaptations that promote independent living. Regular site inspections and health & safety checks will be part of your routine, along with monitoring contractor performance to ensure high standards are maintained.

Your time will be primarily split between Auden Court, Manchester and Sweetbriar House, Shaw. The role requires flexibility to travel between local schemes and provide cover when required. For this reason, a full UK driving licence and access to a personal vehicle are essential.
