Closing Date: Thursday 3 September 2026

About The Role
Lead the customer experience agenda in an organisation that changes lives.
At Trident Group, we do much more than provide homes. We support thousands of people across housing, support and care services, helping customers live independently and thrive within their communities.
We're on an exciting improvement journey. Following significant investment in our housing services, customer engagement approach and operational transformation, we're looking for an ambitious and experienced Customer Experience Manager to help shape the future of our services and ensure every customer voice influences how we deliver, improve and grow.
This is a newly enhanced role with real strategic influence and visibility across the organisation. Reporting directly to the Assistant Director of Housing, you will lead our customer engagement, complaints, customer insight and Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM) functions while championing organisational learning and continuous improvement.
Most importantly, you will play a critical role in helping us achieve our ambition of strengthening our customer experience framework and supporting our journey towards a strong C1 regulatory position.
Why This Role Matters
The social housing sector is changing. Customer expectations are increasing, regulatory scrutiny is stronger than ever, and landlords must demonstrate that residents genuinely influence decision making.
At Trident, we see this as an opportunity.
We are seeking someone who can help us move beyond compliance and create a culture where:
- Customer feedback drives service improvement.
- Complaints become catalysts for learning and change.
- Residents influence decisions that affect their homes and communities.
- Data and insight are translated into measurable actions.
- Regulatory assurance is embedded in everyday practice.
- Every colleague understands their role in delivering an outstanding customer experience.
