Job introduction
A vacancy has arisen within the Acquisitions Team to work with private sector landlords to develop a range of housing initiatives to prevent homelessness and to secure accommodation for those in housing need.
For an informal discussion, please contact Alan Davis, Acquisitions Manager on 01273 293786.
About the role
Based in central Brighton, the successful applicant will work with households at risk of homelessness, landlords and agents in order to source and secure tenancies in the private rented sector.
The post requires excellent IT, communication and negotiation skills; an understanding of the local and regional housing market, together with a desire to provide innovative and solution focused customer service.
Additional information
Your starting salary will be pro rata if the above position is part-time or term-time only.
Work Permits: we may be able to obtain a Work Permit for this post but this is subject to meeting the requirements of the UK Border Agency's Points-based Immigration System.
From 6 April 2011 the Home Office has placed a permanent restriction on the number of migrant workers that all Tier 2 (General) Sponsors can recruit. Due to the restrictions we cannot guarantee that individuals that meet the requirements of the Points-based Immigration System will be issued with clearance to obtain work permits.
Company information
