BucksVision is the leading charity supporting people affected by sight and hearing loss in Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes through a wide range of tailored services and support. We are proud of the wide range of services delivered by our small, dedicated team and fantastic volunteers.

If you thrive where you have clarity of purpose, produce your best work when working in a supportive, collaborative environment, and are motivated by seeing how your contribution makes a positive impact on the lives of people affected by sight loss, you could be just who we are looking for!

We currently have an exciting opportunity for a MK Services Manager to join our team on a part-time or full-time basis.

Why is this role so critical to us?

Have no doubts, this is a role with significant impact.

Your Responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:

• Expanding and developing the existing service: We already have a team of volunteers supporting clients in Milton Keynes, delivered from our office in Aylesbury, but believe there is the opportunity to grow and develop the service further.
• Recruitment and Management of Volunteers: Identifying and recruiting volunteers to provide emotional and practical support to people with sight loss in Milton Keynes.

Required Experience

• Experience working or volunteering in the voluntary/community sector – ideally with an understanding of the current challenges in the sector.
• Experience in recruiting, coordinating, or supporting volunteers or growing a team, service or project through community engagement.
• Demonstrable success in building partnerships, networking or stakeholder engagement.
• Comfortable managing projects or local services with limited supervision, ideally in a community-based setting.
• Prior experience working with or supporting people with sensory loss would be beneficial, but not essential.

If our purpose excites you, and you feel you have the skills required to excel in this role, we would love to receive an application from you!

We understand that the requirements of job advertisements can, on occasions, appear a bit daunting. Please don’t be deterred from applying if you feel you don’t quite meet them all. Training and development will be provided to support your success.

Please apply with a copy of your CV and a covering letter explaining why you feel you are a good match for the role. Please note, applications received with no covering letter will not be considered.

The successful candidate must be freely eligible to work in the UK, as we are unable to accommodate sponsorship.

Housing Officer (Homeownership)

A place to create moments that matter

Location: Peterborough, Hybrid with travel around the region as required to meet business needs.
Salary: £42,213 per annum including regional allowance and essential car user allowance.
Contract Type: Permanent
Hours: 35 hours per week, Monday – Friday 9am-5pm with evening and weekend work as required. 

Thousands of families across the country rely on us for a safe, affordable home. And as the housing crisis deepens, the work we do has never been more important.

It’s this belief - that everyone deserves a place to call home - that drives everything we do. Together, we find new ways to understand and champion our customers, support them and drive positive change.

For a career that means more and makes a meaningful impact on society, this is the place to be.

About the role

As a Housing Officer (Homeownership), you’ll be the go-to expert for our homeowner customers - handling a wide range of complex queries around leases, transfers, property management, and service charges. You’ll play a vital role in ensuring our customers feel supported, informed, and confident in their homes.

This isn’t a desk-bound job. You’ll be out and about visiting schemes, carrying out inspections, and maintaining a visible presence in our communities. You’ll work closely with colleagues across Housing Services and other teams to manage mixed-tenure sites and deliver a seamless customer experience.

You’ll be managing a diverse portfolio of homeownership tenures - shared owners, leaseholders, and freeholders, making sure everything aligns with legal agreements and service expectations. It’s a busy, fast-paced role that requires strong organisational skills, a proactive mindset, and a genuine curiosity to get to the heart of issues.

You’ll need to:

• Translate legal jargon into clear, customer-friendly language
• Think creatively to solve problems and improve service
• Prioritise effectively and manage competing demands
• Build strong relationships across teams and with customers

This is a brilliant opportunity to make a real impact. You’ll work with a wide range of people, tackle interesting challenges, and see the direct results of your work through customer feedback. It’s a role that keeps you on your toes and one where no two days are the same.

Salary

The spot salary for the Housing Officer (Homeownership) post is £37,928 per annum for applicants who fully meet the requirements of the post. Applicants, who do not meet all the requirements of the post, will start 5% or 10% below the spot salary.
Plus a further £3,035 regional allowance and £1,250 per annum essential car user allowance.

About you

• Experience in leasehold management within a housing association or managing agent.
• Strong understanding of leases, transfers, and relevant regulations, with a commitment to continuous professional development.
• Ability to work independently as part of a small team and collaboratively across the wider organisation.
• Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage a high volume of queries and maintain a professional, customer-focused approach.
• Excellent communication skills, capable of engaging with multiple stakeholders at various levels.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook, Excel).

A call with the hiring manager followed by a role related assessment. You’ll learn more about the role and team, and we’ll get to know you – your experience, goals, and what you bring.

We also provide life assurance at three times your salary for all colleagues, giving you added peace of mind.

About The Role
We are recruiting for a Talent and Careers Specialist to join on a full-time basis, working 35 hours per week on a fixed term contract currently until the end of March 2026, with the possibility this could be extended (though this isn’t guaranteed).

Crucially, you’ll be able to provide career development advice and guidance to managers to address skill gaps and develop their staff through apprenticeships. This means you’ll have good communication skills and the ability to build and maintain positive relationships with stakeholders, both internally and externally.

What you’ll focus on:

- Contributing to the development of talent development plans, making recommendations that support our people to have a great experience.
- Managing the Apprenticeship programme at the Society for new and existing employees.
- Providing support, guidance and expert advice to a range of teams and directorates across the Society, particularly around utilising apprenticeships to address skills gaps.
- Supporting with the creation and implementation of policies, processes and guidance on Apprenticeships and other employment initiatives as appropriate.
- Supporting with the planning and management of talent development programmes such as internships and sandwich placements.
