Salary: £18,702 rising to £19,496 after probation, for 25 hours per week

Closing date: 09/07/2026

Location: Wolsey Building

Employment type: Permanent

Hours Per Week: 25 Plus Sleep ins

Additional role requirements:
As this role is working with residents requiring extra support, you are required to have a current Enhanced DBS without Barred List check

Do you thrive on making a real difference to people’s lives every day? Can you bring empathy, organisation, and a passion for community into a role that truly matters?

We’re looking for an Extra Care Scheme Officer to join our team, supporting residents to live independently while feeling safe, connected, and supported within their community. This is a hands-on, people-focused role where no two days are the same — from tenancy management to wellbeing support, you’ll play a key part in creating a positive living environment.

This isn’t your typical housing role. It’s about more than managing tenancies — it’s about building relationships, supporting independence, and helping residents lead fulfilling lives within a vibrant scheme.

What’s in it for you….

In addition to the salary, we offer a number of benefits, including:

• High street discount schemes
• Health cash plans
• 26 days’ annual leave, increasing to 29 after three years, with the opportunity to buy more
• Flexible bank holidays – take them when it suits you
• Car leasing scheme
• Hybrid working – offering you the flexibility to thrive in your role. You'll have the opportunity to blend the best of both worlds, spending approximately two to three days per week in the office once settled in the role. This is flexible and depends on meeting cycles and board activity. We also offer an optional nine-day fortnight scheme, allowing you to compress your hours if it suits the role.

What you’ll be doing……

• Deliver day-to-day housing and scheme management to support residents’ independence
• Monitor rent accounts and support residents to manage payments and avoid arrears
• Work closely with Adult Social Care, support providers, and external partners
• Respond to emergency calls and carry out welfare checks when needed
• Support tenancy processes including sign-ups, viewings, and compliance
• Maintain communal areas and oversee contractors to ensure a safe, clean environment
• Build strong relationships with residents, providing advice and resolving issues
• Encourage and support community engagement and social activities within the scheme

What we’re looking for:

You’ll be someone who genuinely enjoys working with people and takes pride in delivering a great service. You might already have experience in housing, care, or a customer-focused role — or be looking to bring transferable skills into a meaningful environment.

We’re particularly interested in someone who:

• Has a good understanding of housing management or experience in a similar setting
• Is confident communicating with a wide range of people, including vulnerable residents
• Can balance empathy with professionalism when handling sensitive situations
• Is organised, able to prioritise tasks, and comfortable working independently
• Has experience (or an interest) in supporting residents with tenancy, wellbeing, or financial matters
• Is comfortable using IT systems and keeping accurate records
• Is flexible and willing to be part of a 24/7 rota, including sleep-ins or waking nights if required
• Speaks Asian language (desirable)

Community Fundraising Assistant - North 

Are you ready to take on a new challenge with a leading charity making a real difference in brain tumour research?

Brain Tumour Research is an exciting, innovative, and ambitious charity. We are passionate about finding a cure for brain tumours through the establishment of dedicated Brain Tumour Research Centres of Excellence around the UK.​

After a successful 2025, we’re building on our momentum and looking ahead with ambition. As our work continues to expand, so does our impact. We are now looking for passionate people to join us on the next stage of our journey!

It is a fantastic time to be joining us and we are keen to share this with likeminded and talented individuals. We currently have an opening for a Community Fundraising Assistant - North, to join our Community and Digital Fundraising team.

• Do you want to make a difference in one of the most innovative and exciting medical research fundraising charities in the UK?
• Are you able to provide friendly and professional support to fundraisers and supporters?   
• Do you have experience in supporting events or community activities?
• Do you live in either Scotland, North East England, North West England or the East Midlands? 

​

Have you answered Yes to these questions?

Does this sound like the opportunity to really take the next step in your career?

Excited to learn more about this position? Then please take a read through our recruitment pack which is included within this advert.​​​

If you have the skills and ambition that we are looking for we are excited to receive your application.  We are really looking forward to welcoming a new member to our team!​

We are asking for a CV as the first step but applicants may be asked to provide a targeted covering letter as part of the selection process.  Interviews will be conducted during the application window as appropriate, and will consist of a first interview via MS Teams, progressing, if successful to a face to face second interview, held at our offices in Milton Keynes.

​

At Dandelion Time, we support children facing significant emotional challenges, often, but not always, rooted in adverse childhood experiences such as domestic violence, abuse, or neglect. Our systemic, trauma‑informed approach focuses on the whole family, helping them build healthier relationships, create positive change, and move towards brighter futures.

Nature is at the heart of everything we do. Through hands‑on activities in the natural world, children and families connect with the earth, plants, animals and with each other.

About the Role 

You will play a key role in delivering our therapeutic programme. Reporting to the Therapeutic Programme Manager and supporting the Family Caseworker, you will help plan, prepare and facilitate meaningful therapeutic sessions for children and their families. This may include leading group sessions supported by Teaching Assistants or collaborating with teaching staff involved in each child’s care.

Why Join Us?

You’ll be part of a welcoming, energetic and committed team making a real difference in the lives of vulnerable children. The work is deeply rewarding, offering the opportunity to help families rebuild relationships and create new beginnings.

What can you bring to Dandelion Time?

To thrive in this role, you will have experience supporting disadvantaged children or those with SEND.  It would be helpful, but not essential, to have an understanding of the challenges faced by parents and carers managing their own wellbeing. Experience as a Youth Leader, Scout Leader, Forest School Leader, or in a similar child‑centred, outdoor or community role, will be a real asset.

You’ll have a genuine passion for hands‑on, creative activities, whether that’s crafting, working with the land, or caring for animals. An interest in our land‑to‑table ethos, including the preparation and cooking of healthy, nutritious food, will help you feel right at home.

Above all, you’ll bring a warm, joyful presence to the families you support, helping to create a safe, nurturing environment where children can grow, explore and flourish.

Temporary contract

This is a temporary position for 10 months, ideally commencing in early September and continuing until the end of the school year (July 2027). However, our priority is to appoint the right candidate, and we would be willing to offer some flexibility on the start date to accommodate this.
