Rent and Service Charge Officer
We're looking for an organised, proactive and highly motivated Rent and Service Charge Officer to join our brilliant Rent and Service Charge Team. If you enjoy working with data, have a keen eye for detail, and take pride in getting things right, you'll thrive in this role.
You’ll be joining an innovative housing provider, with ambitious growth plans, so we’re interested in hearing from individuals who are ready to embrace their next challenge.
We believe work is something you do, not somewhere you go so if you want to work for a company who are truly flexible and where you are valued then this could be the role for you!
A bit more about us
You might think of Yorkshire Housing as ‘just’ a housing provider, but we’re so much more than that. Yes, we own and manage nearly 20,000 homes (and counting) across Yorkshire and make it possible for current and future customers to have a place they’re proud to call home.
But we’re also all about making a positive difference in people’s lives. We’re transforming our business by investing in people, processes and technology to deliver a consistently great experience for our customers.
What you’ll be doing
In this role, you'll work with data to make sure our rents and service charges are calculated correctly, in line with policy, and accurately entered into our rent system. You'll prepare annual service charge schedules for a range of schemes, calculating revised charges based on policy, for review and sign-off process by our Head of Service.
- Help keep our housing system up to date, making sure new rents and service charges are uploaded accurately and on time.
- Play a key role in producing our annual rent and service charge letters.
- Support income and expenditure reporting, and respond to queries from colleagues and customers in a clear and helpful way.
- Keep accurate, audit-ready records and always be looking for ways to improve how we do things.
- Support the management of the fair rent register, help with appeals, and prepare and post the monthly service charge journal.
