Are you a proactive, experienced housing professional ready to make a difference to young people’s lives? Join YMCA Doncaster as our Accommodation Manager and help to provide and improve services that young people can rely on.

We are a youth-focused registered provider of social housing, currently providing 30 bedspaces with ambitions to create more. This role is focused on landlord services and compliance, particularly with regard to voids, rent / service charge collection, the pro-active resolution of behavioural / engagement issues and the processing of complaints.

We currently provide youth support coaching via a separately managed programme; oversight of this does not currently form part of the Accommodation Manager role.

As a part of our management team, you will be involved in dealing with staffing, client or other issues across the wider organisation as they arise, and you will be part of our On Call rota.

You will be able to develop a strong understanding of our various services and users, and particularly the issues arising in an accommodation setting for young people.

You will have strong recent experience, an understanding of relevant regulatory issues and great organisational skills.
