Are you looking for a rewarding role working for an intersectional feminist organisation? If so, we have an incredible opportunity for you to join our team as an Landlord & Lettings Partnership Manager at Solace Women's Aid.  

You will be joining a team of committed and inspiring individuals whose dedication has saved the lives of thousands of women, men and children in the capital. We are looking for friendly and diligent individuals to join our services and help us make a difference.

Our core values reflect our history and were developed in consultation with staff and service users. Feminism and intersectionality are key to our work and we are committed to the principles of being survivor-led, trauma-informed, empowering, diverse, anti-racist and anti-discriminatory.

About the Service

Safe housing is crucial to the recovery of survivors and two-thirds of the women we support have a housing need. This is an exciting new role to help build pathways and partnerships with housing organisations and landlords to support women and children to safety and recovery.

About the Role

The Landlord & Lettings Partnership Manager will lead on securing suitable accommodation for our service users both while they are in Solace’s services (including refuges and supported accommodation for women experiencing multiple disadvantage) and as they transition to independent living, by building strong partnerships with private landlords and registered housing providers.

As part of the business development team you will work independently to source properties, developing landlord relationships and ensuring sustainable tenancies that benefit both landlords and tenants. You will act as the bridge between landlords and applicants — identifying opportunities, negotiating agreements and supporting successful placements.

You will act as a key link between landlords, housing providers and frontline services, building a pipeline of landlords, establishing systems and processes to delivering a new letting broker service and delivering this as a working concept. Your work will directly contribute to service targets and long‑term housing solutions for survivors.

About You

You bring experience working with landlords, lettings or housing services, ideally within supported housing, homelessness or the private rented sector. You are confident building relationships, negotiating effectively and managing a varied workload in a fast‑paced environment.

Committed to Solace Women’s Aid’s feminist and intersectional values, you bring a collaborative, survivor‑centred approach, balancing practical housing solutions with sensitivity, professionalism and a strong commitment to anti‑discriminatory practice.
