Job Description

Our Planned Investment Delivery teams deliver a cyclical programme of improvements that enhance the quality and safety of our residents’ homes.

We are delighted to be expanding our Planned Investment Resident Liaison Officer team and have a new opportunity for a full‑time, permanent Project Delivery Resident Liaison Officer, covering the South Coast region.

This is a full time, permanent role with your time being split between site visits, office‑based working and some home working. Occasional travel to our Havant office will be required.

You will work closely with resident groups and colleagues across Guinness to ensure that residents’ views are listened to, concerns are addressed, and all stakeholders are kept informed throughout individual projects and the broader the programme for your region. You will drive high levels of resident satisfaction and identify areas for improvement.

What we are looking for

Our residents are at the heart of everything we do, and we believe that how we deliver services is just as important as what we deliver. You will bring excellent communication and interpersonal skills, strong organisational ability, and a genuine commitment to delivering a high-quality service.

Ideally, you will also have a good understanding of large-scale property improvement programmes and their impact on residents.
