Information support manager jobs in primrose hill, greater london
We are looking for someone who is angry at injustice, who really believes in the ability of ordinary people to make change, and who is motivated to learn the craft of Broad-Based Organising. If that is you, we’d love you to join our growing team of 11 organisers in South London! We hope to work with you to build on already existing work in Greenwich and support the building of new work in Bexley.
Citizens UK
Citizens UK is the UK’s biggest, most diverse and most effective people-powered alliance. We bring communities and local organisations together to work on issues that matter; from campaigning for zebra crossings on dangerous roads, to reforming the immigration system, to the Living Wage campaign. We have a track record of winning change through hundreds of local and national campaigns. We know everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them. We believe that through developing local leaders, we can drive nationwide change and create community-led solutions to big and small problems.
Community Organising
We train thousands of people each year to lead change in their communities, through the craft of Broad-based Community Organising, equipping them and their institutions with the skills to hold powerholders to account. We organise with 500+ member organisations in powerful alliances throughout the UK, and in South London Citizens we organise in ten boroughs with almost 100 member organisations. Our members include schools, universities, faith groups, parents’ groups, health practices, charities, migrant hubs and other civil society organisations.
Purpose
At Citizens UK, our organisers and project staff work within communities to develop leaders, strengthen organisations, campaign for change and organise across difference. This work is rewarding and can be challenging; it requires a personal commitment to inclusion, a willingness to listen and disagree respectfully, and an interest in working in an organisation where our staff, member institutions and leaders will come from a diversity of backgrounds and often hold views that may be very different from our own. More information about how we operate within this context and build trusted relationships across difference can be found on our website and is covered in induction. Onboarding and navigating this relational culture, and type of work, is supported by line managers and further training.
Main Responsibilities
The principal responsibility of an Associate Organiser is their own development: learning the craft of Community Organising under the guidance of an experienced Community Organiser. You will work intensively with a small number of member organisations under close supervision, growing your experience, skill and responsibility incrementally. An Associate Organiser is working towards becoming a competent practitioner of the craft of broad-based community organising methodology, and focuses on the building of relational power, the recruitment and retention of dues-paying institutions, the development of leaders, the strengthening of member institutions, leader-led public actions, and the winning of systemic change.
This role is particularly to organise with Be Well Organisations in Greenwich and Bexley. Be Well Organisations may be faith, education, or community institutions, tackling isolation and poor mental health by: 1. Building relationships, 2. Signposting and offering practical support, and 3. Taking action on structural and systemic inequalities and injustices. But you may also work on other campaign priorities and responsibilities as needed across the team.
We are looking for people who are angry about injustice, who believe ordinary people have the power to make change, and who are motivated to learn the craft of Broad-based Organising.

Job Title: Senior Building Surveyor (Qualified)
Hours: 35 hours (full time)
Location: ISHA, 102 Blackstock Road, Finsbury Park, N4 2DR
Salary: £56,195 per annum
Contract: Permanent
This role is based at our Head Office but there is some flexibility to work in a hybrid way if preferred.
Requirements
Are you a qualified Building Surveyor who cares as much about people as you do about properties? Do you believe that everyone deserves a safe, warm, and well-maintained home? If so, you might be just the person we need. We’re on the lookout for a Senior Building Surveyor who's ready to roll up their sleeves, dive into projects, and a person who enjoys collaborating with colleagues.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a qualitied Surveyor to join our Assets and Repairs Team that makes up one element of the wider Housing and Neighbourhoods directorate. The team is led by an Assets and Repairs Manager with a small team of Repairs and Maintenance Advisers, a Disrepair Coordinator, two Surveyors and a Senior Building Surveyor. Whilst we may be small, we’re perfectly formed.
It’s an interesting and varied role for someone with a passion for keeping homes safe, decent, and future-proof—whether that means identifying structural issues, managing planned maintenance, or working with residents to make sure they feel heard and respected. It’s important to us that you’re someone who keeps residents, and their homes, at the heart of your work.
There’s a lot of positive changes happening at ISHA, and within our team, so now is a great time to join so you can be involved, have influence over those changes, and see the beneficial impact they will have over the next 12 months. There are plenty of opportunities for you to shape this into a role you’ll love.
This role will suit you if you have an eye for detail, a head for problem-solving, and ideally, a sense of humour—because we promise there will be blocked drains, pressing deadlines for report submissions, and occasional out of hours work to deal with resident emergencies. You need to be ready for anything, which means working flexibility to find solutions, alongside facilitating the delivery of excellent repairs, voids and planned works.
We’re not just looking for a surveyor. We’re looking for someone who sees the bigger picture—and wants to be part of it.
Some key responsibilities include:
- Supporting Building Surveyors with problematic jobs to ensure a successful outcome.
- Ownership and responsibility for service-related complaints, disrepair cases or queries from customers ensuring that the customer experience is positive, professional and within set timescales.
- Authorising works and approve payments ensuring suppliers are paid in accordance with terms of contracts. Resolve disputes and queries promptly and ensure ISHA’s interests are always protected.
- Carrying out post-works inspections on a proportion of completed works to assess quality of work, value for money and tenant satisfaction.
Don’t feel you meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that some candidates are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single requirement. 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 apply.
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.
Deadline: 12:00pm 25 August 2025

When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, their whole world can feel like it’s falling apart. Independence is taken and confidence is stolen. Stability no longer exists. The future suddenly feels uncertain.

We remove barriers, solve problems and prioritise wellbeing. And we stop at nothing to make sure they get the right care and support at the right time.
