Eastlight Community Homes is proud to be the largest community gateway social housing provider in the country. Together with our residents and communities, we create safe, affordable homes and neighbourhoods that people are proud to live in.
We are seeking a Neighbourhood Lead to join our Regional Neighbourhood Team on a permanent, part-time basis at 14.5 hours per week.
In this frontline role, you’ll be the main point of contact for residents, ensuring homes, estates, and communities are well managed, safe, and welcoming. You’ll handle a wide range of housing management duties including lettings, tenancy visits, rent account support, and dealing with tenancy changes or breaches. Regular estate inspections, resolving anti-social behaviour, and supporting residents with advice, signposting, and safeguarding are also key parts of the role. Working closely with colleagues, contractors, and local partners, you’ll help deliver joined-up services and drive improvements across our neighbourhoods.
We’re looking for applicants with proven communication and problem-solving skills, ideally with strong housing/housing support experience. You’ll be confident managing challenging situations, organised in keeping accurate records, and committed to providing fair, supportive, and high-quality services.
If you’re community-minded, resilient, and passionate about making a positive difference for residents, we’d love to hear from you.
