We’re on the lookout for a Learning Specialist (Compliance & Safety) to join the believe housing team.
This is an exciting opportunity if you want to make a real difference. We believe in life without barriers. If you aren’t sure you meet 100% of the criteria but think you would be great in this role, don’t let that stop you; we would love to hear from you. We’re interested in your skills, knowledge and experience, as well as your personal values. We’re committed to supporting everyone here at believe housing and being an inclusive organisation.
Although this role is advertised as full-time, we will consider part-time, job share and alternative working pattern proposals where possible.
We’re a family-friendly, flexible employer, and we encourage everyone to ‘work the believe way’. For us, this means keeping things simple, doing more of what matters, and removing tasks and processes that don’t add value.
Where and when you work is flexible depending on the demands of your role, our customers’ needs and your individual work preference (as agreed with your manager).
Our offices are based in Seaham and Bishop Auckland and although we work flexibly, it is envisaged that this role will require both an offsite and onsite presence as per business need when required.
About the role
As Learning Specialist (Compliance & Safety), you’ll design and deliver practical, engaging learning that helps colleagues work safely, meet statutory and regulatory requirements, and understand their role in keeping customers safe. Working closely with Property Repairs, Assets & Development, Health & Safety and wider operational teams, you’ll translate safety-critical and compliance information into clear learning that colleagues can apply confidently in their day-to-day roles. You’ll also support a healthy homes culture by helping colleagues identify risk, consider customer vulnerability and use professional judgement.
