You'll be responsible for supporting tenancy sustainment, managing rent accounts, maintaining positive neighbourhoods and helping residents overcome challenges that may affect their housing.
No two days are the same. One day you may be supporting a resident with welfare benefits or resolving a neighbourhood issue, while the next you could be undertaking estate inspections, attending multi-agency meetings or helping a new resident settle into their home.

- Working collaboratively with external agencies and partner organisations.
- Supporting the allocation and letting of homes.
- Promoting resident engagement and community involvement.
- Maintaining accurate records and performance information.
- Ensuring services are delivered in line with legislation, policy and regulatory requirements.

You will be someone who:
- Embodies our values of Trust, Kindness and Hope.
- Builds positive relationships and communicates effectively with a wide range of people.
- Takes a proactive and solution-focused approach to challenges.
- Is organised and able to manage competing priorities.
- Works confidently on their own initiative while contributing to team success.
- Demonstrates empathy, professionalism and sound judgement.
- Enjoys finding solutions and working collaboratively with colleagues and partner agencies.
- Is committed to delivering excellent customer service.
We're particularly interested in candidates who have:

- Experience managing a varied caseload and prioritising workloads effectively.
- Strong communication, negotiation and conflict-resolution skills.
- Experience supporting residents through sensitive or challenging situations.
- Experience working with external agencies and partner organisations.
- Good IT skills, including Microsoft Office and housing management systems.
- The ability to travel across Denbighshire and Conwy as required.
A relevant housing qualification, such as CIH Level 3 or equivalent, would be advantageous. However, we recognise that housing management is a broad role and welcome applications from candidates who may have experience in some areas and are keen to develop in others.
At ClwydAlyn, you'll join an organisation with a clear social purpose and a genuine commitment to helping people and communities’ flourish. You'll be trusted to make decisions, supported to develop your skills and encouraged to work collaboratively to achieve the best outcomes for residents.
Together, we're working to end poverty and create stronger communities across North Wales.
