At Camphill Village Trust we know exactly why we do what we do. With a bold and ambitious vision to be leaders of integrated Social Care, with the proven benefits of Nature, we transform life opportunities for adults with a learning disability and autism to be their best selves each and every day.

We provide Supported Living Services for Adults with Learning Disability, Autism and other Mental ill-health with a goal to enable independent, healthy active living and life opportunity. This role demonstrates how we provide independence and promote choice and control for the people we support.

The role ensures that there is clear separation between our housing and support/care provision and creates clear boundaries and accountability in line with CQC and other best practice. The role holder will ensure that the focus on the landlord/tenant relationship, which falls under landlord and tenant law, is seen as a separate service to our care services, governed by health and social care regulations.

The varying aspects of Supported Living provision require different expertise. This role will work in partnership with Registered Managers to ensure a joined up and cohesive support service. The role will maximise high quality funding and financial transparency; maximising housing benefit and specialist housing support income, increased transparency and advocacy for people we support.

The role holder will lead on expert oversight of rent and service charge policy, service charges reviews and best practice implementation of service charges within a complex estates and services environment.

What you’ll bring to the role:

  1. Professional Housing Qualification level 5 or above
  2. Significant experience of leading and managing a housing management service within the context of Supported Living or other similar services.
  3. Up to date knowledge of housing legislation particularly in relation to Rent, Service Charge and Allowances.
  4. Significant experience of developing and implementation of housing management policy and procedures
  5. Project Management Skills
  6. Working as a National Lead in relation to a function.

This role will be home-based but there will be need for regular travel to our communities and overnight stays to meet the needs of the role. Ease of access to our communities is essential. Due to the rural setting of some of our communities, a driving licence and own vehicle will be essential.

Your application should include your CV and a supporting statement of no less than one page detailing why you would like to work for the Trust and how your skills and experience meet the job description and person specification (see attached Job pack).
