Calling all night owls! Prefer staying awake and working through the night rather than snoozing away like the rest of us Were looking for a dedicated night worker who wont fall asleep on the job! If youre as energised as a new Duracell bunny with the alert skills of a meerkat this is the job for you!

Were looking for new Social Housing Concierges to join our growing teams. Here at Home Group we look after our vulnerable customers but also those with quite complex care needs. Your job will be to make sure our customers are safe our buildings are secure and pleasant places to be and that we get on with our neighbours.

Typical shift as a Housing Concierge

• If you want a quiet and calm (night) security job then this is not the job for you!
• There is so much more involved than just (night working) stuck in an office monitoring CCTV or patrolling the premises.
• The first line of support for our customers when our wider team or their own support network arent around to help!
• Youll manage the health and safety of the building patrolling to check fire doors making sure everything is locked and secure.
• Thinking on your feet and manage a situation on the spot such as investigating suspicious activity or raising the alarm when we need to engage the emergency services.
• Finally if there is time youll also help us make sure that everything is clean and tidy so you need to be ok with wielding the mop or broom as well!

Fancy going home each day knowing that you have helped change our customers lives for the better Youll do that here working for one of the top ten Great Place to Work in the UK!
