Job Title: Resident Liaison Officer
Hours: 35 hours (full time)
Location: ISHA, 102 Blackstock Road, Finsbury Park, N4 2DR
Salary: £36,790 per annum
Contract: Permanent

Are you passionate about making a real difference in people’s lives? Do you believe that residents should be at the heart of everything we do, and that everyone deserves a safe, warm, and well-maintained home? If so, we want you to join our team as a Resident Liaison Officer at ISHA.

We are looking for someone who:

• Has excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• Is empathetic, proactive, and genuinely passionate about supporting communities.
• Has experience in customer service, housing, or community engagement.
• Can manage multiple tasks effectively while maintaining a resident-first approach.
• Thrives in a collaborative, people-focused environment.

This is a fantastic opportunity for the right person to join our small, but supportive, team that makes up one element of the wider Housing and Neighbourhoods directorate.

As a Resident Liaison Officer, you will be the vital link between ISHA and the people we serve. Your role will be to build strong relationships with residents and leaseholders, ensuring they are informed, engaged, and supported through any housing-related matters, including repairs, refurbishments, and community initiatives. It’s important to us that you’re someone who keeps residents, and their homes, at the heart of your work.

This role will suit you if you have an eye for detail, a head for problem-solving, and ideally, a sense of humour — because that always goes a long way when we’re having a hard day, which is inevitable. 

Some key responsibilities include:

• Talking with residents and leaseholders, addressing queries, concerns, and feedback with empathy and professionalism.
• Communicate clearly and effectively about ongoing works, projects, and changes affecting residents.
• Work closely with contractors, and Housing and Neighbourhood colleagues to ensure minimal disruption to residents’ daily lives.
• Attend resident engagement activities, ensuring their voices are heard and valued.
• Advocate for residents' needs, helping to shape our services with their best interests in mind.

At ISHA, we are dedicated to building an inclusive workforce, so if you’re excited by this role but your experience doesn’t quite align perfectly, we encourage you to apply anyway. You just might be the right candidate for this, or other roles, because of your transferable skills.

About ISHA

We are a small but ambitious housing association at a critical juncture. Our ambition is for the communities we are anchored in and exist to serve, and we have done and achieved much over the past few years. But in these challenging times we know we’ll achieve nothing unless we are equally ambitious for own our people.

Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions. We strive to build a more diverse organisation, where everyone feels empowered to bring, and be, their best self to work.

We can’t be a brilliant landlord if we don’t partner with brilliant colleagues. Could you be one of them and be trusted to make the difference?

If this sounds exciting, we want you on our team. Please do submit an application.

Staff Benefits

We’ll offer you a generous pension scheme (up to 10% employer matched contributions and a death in service benefit), 29 days annual leave (increasing after five years’ service), eye care vouchers, a cycle to work scheme and other great benefits (see attached). We have an evolving wellbeing offer, that is being developed following employee feedback, and we will invest in your professional development with on-going training and career development opportunities.

Inclusion and Diversity

We want ISHA to be a great place to work and to ensure that our communities are represented across our workforce. A vital part of this is ensuring we are a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity in all respects, including diversity of thinking. We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBTQ+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to our residents so that passionate commitment to customers, respect for everyone, pride in Team ISHA and trusted to make the difference remains at the heart of everything we do.

This role is based at our Head Office but there is some flexibility to work in a hybrid way if preferred.

Deadline: 09:00 30 May 2025

Background

Every three minutes someone in the UK develops dementia: a progressive and complex condition that can be devastating for the whole family. One in two of us will be affected by dementia in our lifetime – either by caring for someone with the condition, developing it ourselves, or both.

Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nursing charity that is there for the whole family. Our specialist nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide free, expert advice, support and understanding to help families care for their loved one. Every day, Admiral Nurses help families up and down the country to have the best life possible, for as long as possible.

About the role

We are seeking a passionate and strategic Head of Community Fundraising to join our team and play a pivotal role in developing Dementia UK’s Community Fundraising strategy, providing excellent fundraising experiences and delivering high quality supporter journeys which maximise short, medium and long-term income generation for Dementia UK.

Leading the Community Fundraising team, you will play a critical role in ensuring Dementia UK can continue to expand its vital services for families affected by dementia. With a clear vision for innovation and supporter engagement, you will be responsible for driving the development and delivery of a bold and effective community fundraising strategy, aligned with wider fundraising and organisational objectives. You will deliver against agreed KPIs, ensuring that the strategies and activities directly support the broader objectives of Fundraising and Engagement, and the organisation.

You will champion high-quality supporter stewardship so that everyone has a fantastic experience with Dementia UK – and ensure team managers continually review the supporter experience so that relationships with supporters are high quality and maximise fundraising potential. You’ll work closely with the Fundraising Innovation Lead to support new product development and the continuation of ideas and minimum viable products.

As a senior leader, you will cultivate a high-performing and aspirational team culture, inspiring staff to exceed targets while providing strong leadership and professional development. Additionally, you will work across the directorate, partnering with Marketing & Communications to enhance brand visibility and supporting wider Fundraising team initiatives to drive greater influence and engagement.

To succeed, you will bring significant experience in developing and implementing successful community fundraising strategies, with a proven track record of income growth, innovation, and exceptional supporter experiences. You’ll be a collaborative leader, skilled in budget management, performance monitoring, and people development.

If this sounds like you, join us now and be part of a team dedicated to making a real difference in the lives of those affected by dementia.
