We are avid supporters of agile working, and you will be provided with a laptop, tablet, and phone in order to work out and about on your patch, from home and in our offices.
Are you passionate about delivering excellent housing services and building strong, safe communities? At Moat, we’re looking for a proactive and customer-focused Neighbourhood Services Manager to join our team and take ownership of a diverse housing portfolio.
In this role, you’ll be the face of Moat in our communities—managing tenancies and leases, ensuring high standards in estate services, and responding swiftly to anti-social behaviour and tenancy breaches.

What you’ll be doing:
- Conducting regular estate inspections and monitoring cleaning and gardening contracts
- Managing tenancy and leasehold queries in line with service standards
- Ensuring managing agents deliver value-for-money services
- Taking prompt enforcement action on ASB and tenancy breaches
- Supporting new tenants and shared owners through sign-ups and onboarding
- Handling complaints and ensuring compliance with the Housing Ombudsman Code
- Fulfilling our safeguarding obligations, ensuring that vulnerable residents are signposted to key agencies and providing appropriate support in our capacity as landlord

What we’re looking for:
- Strong knowledge of tenancy and leasehold management
- Experience in handling ASB and community engagement
- Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
- You’ll have excellent time management skills with an ability to manage a complex caseload whilst adhering to important deadlines
- A relevant housing qualification (or willingness to work towards one)
- A full UK driving licence and access to transport
