We are looking for a dynamic and dedicated Voids and Disabled Adaptations Manager to lead our building maintenance teams. In this pivotal role, you will be the driving force behind ensuring our properties are not just houses, but quality homes, by overseeing the seamless refurbishment of void properties and managing the delivery of essential disabled adaptations.
This is a unique opportunity to shape service standards, champion innovation, and directly impact the lives of residents who need it most. We need someone who can hit the ground running, balancing project management with a deep commitment to resident-centric service, all while fostering a collaborative, high-performing culture within our dedicated teams.
If you bring a wealth of experience in property maintenance, a talent for navigating complex budgets, and a genuine drive to build inclusive, safe, and accessible housing solutions, we want to hear from you. You’ll be working at the heart of our community, translating strategic objectives into real-world results and helping us maintain our reputation for excellence. If you are ready to take on a challenge that requires both technical expertise and heartfelt leadership, come help us keep our promises to the residents of Hackney. Join us in creating environments where everyone feels safe, supported, and at home.

Hackney Council works to eradicate discrimination on the basis of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, and sexual orientation. We also recognise that people can be disadvantaged by their social and economic circumstances, so we will also work to eliminate discrimination and disadvantage caused by social class. We also welcome those interested in flexible working. We particularly welcome applications from disabled people, as this group is currently under-represented in our workforce.
