Description
Here at Peabody, we have an opportunity for a Scheme Manager - Acton on a Permanent basis at one of our sheltered housing schemes in Acton. We work hard to ensure we are providing for people whose needs have evolved as they’ve grown older. We own and manage specialist homes for older people. These homes are designed to help them maintain, and in some cases increase, their independence. We also have a wide programme of services and activities to help them connect with their community and lead richer lives. Our scheme in Acton consists of 52 flats, has a large communal area with kitchen and a large garden. Our residents want to live independently with reassurance that there is help at hand should they need it! As a Scheme Manager, you are personable, passionate and will flourish working with our older residents who may have complex needs or are vulnerable because of their health or physical disabilities. What we’re looking for: Do you have experience of providing support to vulnerable adults? Do you have a housing management background or previous supported housing experience where you have delivered good customer care? Do you understand safeguarding and the importance of keeping accurate records? If so, then Peabody has the perfect for you! A bit about the role: As a Scheme Manager - Acton, you will have overall responsibility for the day-to-day housing management and services provided at these schemes. You will take full responsibility of managing the estate and monitor the services provided by others such as cleaners, contractors, or other stakeholders within Peabody. Some of the key results for the role include: Ensure schemes meet all statutory requirements in terms of health and safety (including fire safety). Resident satisfaction and ensure they feel safe, secure and respected. Identify and assess residents needs to ensure they have the right level of support. Report repairs and maintenance. Work with other scheme managers across the service and provide cover if required.

This role will require an Enhanced DBS check, a UK driver’s licence, and access to a vehicle. A typical week will involve working Monday to Friday between the hours of 9AM and 5PM, 7 hours each day, 35 hours per week.

Today, we have 107,000 homes and 220,000 residents across London and the Home Counties and around 20,000 care and support customers. But the desire remains the same – to create homes and communities where people can flourish.
