Sutton Housing Partnership (established in 2006) manages council housing in Sutton. We aim to bring investment and improvements to homes across the borough. We are responsible for the day-to-day management of housing services to around 6,000 council tenants and 1,500 leaseholders.

This is the perfect time to join SHP as we are improving our services to ensure they are as effortless as possible to access both internally and for residents. We are currently seeking a manager for our Independent Living (55+)  services to join us  to deliver services which make it effortless for older residents  to live independently and feel happy, secure and supported.  This will also include management of our 55+ short term support service Sutton Connect.

Reporting to the People and Place Lead, you will be an inspiring leader for the Independent Living and Sutton Connect stakeholders, providing a resident-focused service.

Providing operational oversight, you will play an active role in setting and communicating the direction of the service we offer and will undertake quality, financial and management monitoring across your areas of responsibility. You will work together with the wider team to lead and manage staff to deliver a pragmatic resident focussed housing management service including resident well-being that meets the needs of our Independent Living and Sutton Connect residents.

We are looking for a skilled Housing Management professional with good knowledge and understanding of current issues that affect the provision of an effective and efficient Independent Living  and short term resident support service. With a track record of managing and motivating a team, you will have the ability to coach and develop staff using your strong communication and interpersonal skills. You will also have a solid understanding of older persons housing, landlord regulatory and compliance requirements as well as delivering successful, resident focussed services.

You will need to be flexible with your working hours to cover evenings/weekends to suit the needs of the business.
