About The Role
Housing Administrator – 30 Hours per Week
Are you passionate about making a difference in people’s lives?
Do you want to be part of a caring, supportive and dedicated team?
We’re looking for a Housing Administrator to join our supported living and housing services in Surrey.
This is a varied role where your organisation, communication and people skills will help provide an effective housing service to tenants, families and professionals.
As a Housing Administrator, you’ll:

• Act as a first point of contact for tenants, families, professionals and agencies.
• Maintain tenancy records, agreements and housing documentation, including easy-read versions.
• Provide housing management support, including for tenants at Ashdown.
• Coordinate repairs and maintenance enquiries, working with tenants, families, colleagues and contractors.
• Support tenants and families with Housing Benefit, Universal Credit and exempt accommodation queries.
• Liaise with local authorities and external agencies to resolve housing-related issues.
• Support property and projects teams with administration and document control.
• Book meetings, reviews and professional visits and provide a welcoming service to visitors.

What we’re looking for:

• At least two years’ administrative experience, ideally in housing, supported living, care or a related environment.
• Strong organisational skills and excellent attention to detail.
• Good communication and IT skills.
• Experience maintaining accurate records and dealing with customer enquiries.
• The ability to manage competing priorities and work collaboratively.
• A warm, professional, empathetic and non-judgemental approach.
• An understanding of confidentiality, safeguarding, equality and inclusion.

We’re committed to keeping the people we support safe, so this role requires a satisfactory enhanced DBS and background checks. We are an equal opportunities employer and value diversity within our workforce. Candidates must have the right to work in the UK, as sponsorship is not available for this role.
