Housing service manager jobs in london, essex

About the role

We believe learning should be impactful, accessible and enjoyable.

Every year, we support over 4,500 people through our Open Training Programme and reach thousands more through bespoke in-house training and our growing eLearning offer. Now, we’re looking for a Training and Development Manager to take our training to the next level building on our success and helping us grow our impact even further.

We run our training services as a social business, which means we are not just focused on income, but on impact too. Our goal is to offer cost-effective, high-quality learning that helps charities and voluntary organisations thrive. The income we generate plays a vital role in NCVO’s financial sustainability and supports our mission to strengthen civil society.

Over the past five years, we have:

• expanded our reach across the UK
• made our training more affordable for smaller organisations
• diversified our delivery model

Our training programme includes:

• Open Programme: Live online training open to everyone
• In-house Training: Tailored sessions for specific organisations, delivered online or face to face
• eLearning: A fast-growing area we’re excited to scale up.

This role is a great fit for someone who loves variety. You will lead and manage a busy programme with multiple strands, ensuring it runs smoothly and maintains the high standards people expect from NCVO. At the same time, you will keep an eye on the bigger picture; driving growth, developing our offer, and spotting opportunities to innovate.

You will work closely with our subject experts and delivery partners to shape training content that meets the sector’s real needs. You will also collaborate with clients to pitch and secure new business; building relationships that create shared value and lasting impact.

We are looking for someone with a mix of commercial mindset and sector empathy — someone who understands how to grow a business and how to do it in a way that’s rooted in values.

You will thrive in this role if:

• You are motivated by hitting income targets, but never lose sight of purpose
• You are organised, detail-oriented and calm under pressure
• You bring a strong vision for growth and innovation in learning
• You are curious and excited about how tech — including AI — is changing the way people learn
• You enjoy working across teams and building collaborative relationships
• You care deeply about supporting the voluntary sector to grow and thrive

In return, we offer a flexible, meaningful role with plenty of variety. You will join a supportive, values-led team and play a key part in an organisation that helps charities do what they do best: make a difference.

We know the voluntary sector is always evolving and we want our training to stay one step ahead. If you’re excited by the idea of helping others learn, grow, and succeed, we would love to hear from you.

Transformation Hub Manager

Location: Mainly our head office in E12, but also in other venues around the borough of Newham as directed.

Salary: £40,940 per annum

Hours: 36 hours per week

Vacancy Type: 4 year fixed term, funded by the National Lottery Community Fund

For over five decades, the Renewal Programme has been a trusted cornerstone of the community in the London Borough of Newham, tackling the root causes and consequences of poverty, isolation, and disadvantage.

Role overview

The Transformation Hub Manager will play a pivotal role in reshaping our service offerings by creating a vibrant, inclusive, and strengths-based hub for our communities - many of who are underserved, including asylum seekers, refugees, residents facing isolation, and those affected by homelessness. You will lead on the delivery and successful management of our National Lottery funded RenewALL Hub, transforming our ideas from concept into a sustainable, impactful centre for community wellbeing. Central to this role is continuing to drive the shift from a crisis-led service model to a holistic, strengths-based approach, ensuring the RenewALL hub empowers Newham residents to connect, grow, and thrive. A major part of this transformation will be designing and delivering a wide range of new activities and services. Crucially, the Hub will not just deliver activities for residents but will be co-designed and co-produced with them, embedding lived experience and the voice of the community at its core. Success will depend on your ability to build and lead a coherent, motivated team of staff and volunteers, uniting them behind the shared vision of the Hub. You will work to create a welcoming space that reflects the ambitions of our Open House strategy, where dignity, inclusion, collaboration and empowerment are lived out in every interaction.

Key Responsibilities

Leadership & Hub Development

• Lead a team to ensure the successful implementation of the RenewALL Hub project, as submitted to the National Lottery Community Fund, aligning all activities with our “Open House” strategy and theory of change.
• Champion and embed a strengths-based, “advantaged thinking” culture across all Hub operations, actively shifting the focus from deficits to assets.
• Build and inspire a coherent, motivated team of staff and volunteers, uniting them around a shared vision for transformation.

Programme Design & Community Co-Production

• Oversee the design, delivery, and continuous evaluation of a diverse, inclusive weekly programme of activities, informed by community consultation and resident priorities.
• Manage a portfolio of activities that improve wellbeing, reduce isolation, and build skills — including health & wellbeing sessions, cultural celebrations, social connection groups, and learning opportunities.
• Facilitate and champion the Community Hub Involvement Panel (CHIP), ensuring residents co-produce activities and influence the Hub’s direction, with a pathway to influencing trustee-level decision making.

Partnership Development

• Build and strengthen partnerships with key stakeholders, including NHS teams, Public Health colleagues and social prescribers, creating integrated wellbeing pathways for Newham residents.
• Maintain and expand relationships with local organisations, agencies, and community groups, ensuring the Hub complements and connects with wider services.

Community Food & Social Connection

• Provide oversight (via the Food Sustainability Coordinator) for all food-related initiatives, ensuring they align with the Hub’s ethos of dignity, choice, and resilience.
• Direct the strategic transition from over-reliance on a traditional Food Bank to an empowering Food Club model, reinforcing pathways from crisis to independence.

Operational Leadership

• Oversee the day-to-day running of the Hub space, ensuring it is safe, welcoming, and open 7 days a week.
• Coordinate and support staff, volunteers, and sessional workers across the Hub, embedding strong safeguarding and trauma-informed practice.

Promotion & Outreach

• Work with the marketing team to promote the Hub’s activities widely, ensuring strong engagement from under-represented and vulnerable groups.
• Conduct outreach to engage under represented residents, ensuring activities are culturally inclusive and accessible.

Monitoring, Evaluation & Compliance

• Lead on the monitoring and evaluation requirements of our Lottery bid.
• Use monitoring and evaluation tools (e.g., Upshot) to track engagement, outcomes, and impact, ensuring activities remain effective and relevant.
• Ensure compliance with all necessary regulations, safeguarding, and legal requirements.

Person Specification

• Passionate about community empowerment, inclusion, and tackling inequalities
• Commitment to strengths-based and dignity-first approaches, especially in working with marginalised communities (e.g., refugees, asylum seekers, people experiencing homelessness)
• Significant experience in leading community development or social impact projects
• Proven track record of designing, delivering, and evaluating community programmes that improve wellbeing and reduce isolation
• Demonstrable experience of co-production with residents or service users, ensuring their voices shape services
• Strong partnership-building skills, with the ability to work effectively with statutory services (e.g., NHS, Public Health, Local Authority) and voluntary/community partners
• Experience of managing staff and volunteers, including supervision, and motivation
• Strong understanding of trauma-informed practice and safeguarding, and ability to embed these across all hub activities
