The Vacancy
At NCHA, we're passionate about making our communities a great place to live. Our Home Ownership team plays an important role in supporting leaseholders and shared owners, ensuring they receive a high-quality service while helping NCHA meet its statutory and financial responsibilities. We're looking for a Home Ownership Advisor to join our friendly and dedicated team.
Role Overview
As a Home Ownership Advisor, you'll manage a portfolio of leasehold properties and be the main point of contact for leaseholders, providing advice, guidance and support on a range of leasehold matters. You'll work closely with customers, solicitors, estate agents and internal teams to deliver an excellent customer experience and ensure compliance with relevant legislation and lease obligations.
This is a varied role that combines customer service, problem solving, financial administration and relationship management, giving you the opportunity to make a real difference to our leaseholders and shared owners.
Key Responsibilities
As a Home Ownership Advisor, you will:
- Manage a portfolio of leasehold properties and act as the main point of contact for leaseholders.
- Provide advice, guidance and support on lease agreements, permissions and home ownership matters.
- Manage shared ownership applications, assignments and resales, working closely with customers, estate agents and solicitors.
- Monitor service charge budgets and support the preparation of leaseholder accounts and related financial information.
- Investigate and resolve lease-related issues, including breaches of lease agreements, working collaboratively with internal teams and customers.
- Develop and maintain knowledge of leasehold legislation to ensure customers receive accurate advice and support.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
