About Target Housing
Target Housing is a charity and registered social landlord. For over 30 years, we have provided housing and support to people who need it most. Our psychologically and trauma-informed approach focuses on empowerment, independence and helping people build positive futures. We believe that safe, secure and well-maintained accommodation is fundamental to helping people live independently and achieve their potential.
About the Role
We’re looking for an organised and proactive Property & Maintenance Administrator to join our small, busy and collaborative team. You’ll coordinate repairs and maintenance across our property portfolio, managing requests from initial report through to completion. This will involve assessing and prioritising repairs, arranging appointments and access, allocating work to contractors or maintenance teams, and actively monitoring progress, repair timescales and KPIs, escalating overdue or at-risk works to make sure repairs are completed within the required timescales. You’ll manage a shared Property & Maintenance inbox, which is the main route for incoming repair requests, alongside telephone enquiries and other requests, while also coordinating scheduled Health & Safety inspections and following up any actions arising from them. A key part of the role is keeping a clear overview of outstanding work and proactively chasing progress. You’ll work closely with tenants, support workers, landlords, contractors, maintenance operatives and colleagues to resolve issues, communicate updates and keep things moving. You’ll also support the management of damp and mould repairs, including monitoring relevant timescales and actions under Awaab’s Law, and contribute to improving Property & Maintenance processes and ways of working.
