Job description

About you:

We’re looking for a driven and detail focused professional to join our Housing Services Team as a Senior Housing and Income Officer. In this pivotal role, you’ll help ensure our housing services remain financially secure while supporting our clients to sustain their tenancies and build brighter futures. Working closely with our Housing Services and Supported Accommodation teams, you’ll combine practical problem solving with empathy and determination to make sure every client has the best chance to thrive.

You’ll take ownership of rent income management - overseeing complex accounts, tackling arrears, approving adjustments, and managing legal actions with precision and care. You’ll spot risks early, keep everything running to time, and ensure our policies are followed to the letter. Alongside this, you’ll share your knowledge with frontline teams, providing guidance, training and benefit updates that empower others to achieve consistent, high-quality rent collection.

This is a role where your expertise and tenacity will have real impact - strengthening financial stability, supporting lasting change for clients, and shaping the future of how we deliver housing services. It’s also a chance to build a meaningful career at Single Homeless Project (SHP), developing your professional skills in an organisation that values ambition, compassion and innovation in equal measure.

We are currently operating a blended working arrangement, that includes working from our Head Office in Kings Cross for a minimum of 3 days per week, as well as flexible occasional travel to our accommodation services across London. There is also some potential for home working, in agreement with the Head of Property Services.

The weekly working hours are 37.5 hrs, to be completed between 9am-5pm Mon- Fri, with occasional need to work outside of these times in the event of an emergency.

About you:

  • You’ll be someone with proven experience managing rent accounts and maximising income across a busy caseload.
  • You understand the welfare benefits system and know how to help clients access the right support.
  • You have solid knowledge of housing management - from tenancy and health & safety to managing evictions.
  • You’re confident dealing with repairs, complaints, and anti-social behaviour in a fair and timely way.
  • You take pride in supporting clients to sustain their tenancies and build financial stability.
  • You work well with others - building strong relationships with colleagues and external partners to get the best results.

About us:

Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.

We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change. From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 10,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.

We offer you more than a job; we offer you a chance to be part of a compassionate, driven team that's committed to making a real difference in people's lives. You'll have the opportunity to lead, co-create, and inspire change while enjoying a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.

Join us in creating a brighter, more hopeful future for individuals in need.

Closing date: Sunday 9th November 2025 at Midnight
