Are you interested in working for a Charity that seeks to make a genuine difference to the lives of people with learning disabilities and other support needs?

 

EHSL was founded in 2012 and offers supported housing services to people with learning disabilities, mental health issues and other support needs, in conjunction with care providers and local authorities. It has continued to enjoy growth as partners recognise the benefit of working with an established and knowledgeable delivery partner.  Our office is in Winnersh, close to Reading and accessible to London and the South-East, and Central England. Our staff team cover both office-based and field-based roles.

Our organisational structure includes the following:

  • The Housing Team are responsible for visiting sites, meeting and assisting tenants, providing frontline housing management services, and acting as the first point of contact for a geographical patch of services.
  • The Landlord Services Team provides an effective and responsive rent collection and income management service, supporting tenants to comply with their obligation to pay rent and service charges.
  • The Property Team looks after EHSL’s portfolio, ensuring it is kept safe and that responsive repairs and communal services are performed, either via contractors or our team of Maintenance Operatives.
  • The Accounts Team keeps EHSL’s accounting software up to date, produces reports and ensures that EHSL meets its financial obligations.
  • The Development Team works with care providers, local authorities and building owners to develop services to meet demand.
  • The Business Support Team oversees EHSL’s HR, IT, Fleet Management and office management functions.

We are committed to paying the London Living wage and are always looking for people who are passionate about making a difference. We are keen to hear from candidates with experience working in Housing, Social Care, and Property Management.
