Community Coach (Tenancy Sustainment)

Salary £23,767 to £28,961 FTE per annum (pro rata), Fixed Term for Two years, 21 hours per week (in a pattern to be agreed); (cost of living award pending)

Our aim is to ensure we equip our tenants with the knowledge and tools they need to help them manage their home independently. As a Community Coach you will provide housing-related advice and guidance to people who are experiencing housing issues and have additional vulnerabilities. You could be working with these incredible people to assist them with how to manage their tenancy and finances, as well as digital inclusion and wellbeing.

This is a rewarding and challenging role, and you may be faced with complex situations and difficult conversations, behaviours and needs. Therefore, you will need to be organised, well prepared and creative. You would be working with people who are faced with housing issues such as ASB, rent arrears, benefit issues, needing to downsize or struggling with other elements of their tenancy.

Our role is to undertake an assessment of their needs and to work with them to support them to achieve their goals through planning and accessing both internal and external services they can access.

Working as a Community Coach is an exciting opportunity because no two days are the same and you could really make a positive difference to someone’s life as you work together to prevent homelessness and support them with their goals.
