As this role is working with residents requiring extra support, you are required to have a current Enhanced DBS without Barred List check

Do you thrive on making a real difference to people’s lives every day? Can you bring empathy, organisation, and a passion for community into a role that truly matters?

We’re looking for an Extra Care Scheme Officer to join our team, supporting residents to live independently while feeling safe, connected, and supported within their community. This is a hands-on, people-focused role where no two days are the same — from tenancy management to wellbeing support, you’ll play a key part in creating a positive living environment.

This isn’t your typical housing role. It’s about more than managing tenancies — it’s about building relationships, supporting independence, and helping residents lead fulfilling lives within a vibrant scheme.

What’s in it for you….

In addition to the salary, we offer a number of benefits, including:

• High street discount schemes
• Health cash plans
• 26 days’ annual leave, increasing to 29 after three years, with the opportunity to buy more
• Flexible bank holidays – take them when it suits you
• Car leasing scheme
• Hybrid working – offering you the flexibility to thrive in your role. You'll have the opportunity to blend the best of both worlds, spending approximately two to three days per week in the office once settled in the role. This is flexible and depends on meeting cycles and board activity. We also offer an optional nine-day fortnight scheme, allowing you to compress your hours if it suits the role.

What you’ll be doing……

• Deliver day-to-day housing and scheme management to support residents’ independence
• Monitor rent accounts and support residents to manage payments and avoid arrears
• Work closely with Adult Social Care, support providers, and external partners
• Respond to emergency calls and carry out welfare checks when needed
• Support tenancy processes including sign-ups, viewings, and compliance
• Maintain communal areas and oversee contractors to ensure a safe, clean environment
• Build strong relationships with residents, providing advice and resolving issues
• Encourage and support community engagement and social activities within the scheme

What we’re looking for:

You’ll be someone who genuinely enjoys working with people and takes pride in delivering a great service. You might already have experience in housing, care, or a customer-focused role — or be looking to bring transferable skills into a meaningful environment.

We’re particularly interested in someone who:

• Has a good understanding of housing management or experience in a similar setting
• Is confident communicating with a wide range of people, including vulnerable residents
• Can balance empathy with professionalism when handling sensitive situations
• Is organised, able to prioritise tasks, and comfortable working independently
• Has experience (or an interest) in supporting residents with tenancy, wellbeing, or financial matters
• Is comfortable using IT systems and keeping accurate records
• Is flexible and willing to be part of a 24/7 rota, including sleep-ins or waking nights if required
• Speaks Asian language (desirable)

If you have relevant qualifications (such as A-levels or equivalent) and experience in housing or a related sector, that’s great — but just as important is your attitude and commitment to making a difference.

If specific qualifications are required, please upload them with your application to demonstrate your eligibility.

At PA Housing, we believe in respect, integrity, and accountability. Our work is about people – not just properties – and we’re always looking for ways to do better. If that sounds like your kind of place, we’d love to hear from you.

Disclosure and Barring Service:

This role requires of the successful candidate to complete an enhanced DBS check. An enhanced DBS check will show any spent and unspent convictions.

So why do we need to know this information? This role will be required to visit / support PA Housing residents in their own homes on a regular basis. Therefore we have a duty to our residents to ensure that we have taken precautions regarding who will be visiting them and representing PA Housing.

Having unspent convictions will not necessarily preclude you from being recruited into the role; if you are potentially the successful candidate, we will complete a risk assessment with you to understand the circumstances around your conviction, how relevant they are to the post you have applied for and what remedial action , if any, have you have taken since your conviction. Suitable references will also need to be obtained prior to commencement of employment.

Are you able to build excellent relationships? Do you have fundraising or customer service experience? Can you adapt your communications to a wide range of audiences?

Then we might have the perfect job for you!
