Govanhill Housing Association provides a comprehensive range of services focused on the needs of tenants and owner occupiers in the Govanhill and Merrylee communities.  We carry out acquisition and improvement of tenemental stock as well as delivering a new build programme. We work closely with our subsidiary company, Govanhill Community Development Trust, whose community development and regeneration services complement our own role as a social landlord.

We are looking for an additional engaging, innovative and hard-working Housing Assistant to join our Tenancy Services Team and help us deliver an excellent service to our tenants and other customers.

The duties of this post are many and varied but will involve working closely with a Housing Officer to ensure the smooth running of a patch.

You will assist with the day-to-day delivery of the full range of housing management services to our tenants (excluding arrears management).

Candidates must be numerate and proficient with Microsoft Office applications, have excellent verbal and written communication skills and an ability to relate well to members of the public, colleagues and contractors.

You will be committed to delivering excellent customer service and bring a positive, can-do attitude, along with strong organisational and time management skills.

Previous experience of working in an office environment, is preferred but not essential, as is knowledge of the social rented sector and previous experience of using housing software.

If you share our commitment to providing excellent services to our customers in Govanhill and Merrylee and would enjoy working within this diverse community, you can find further information in the Application Pack which can be obtained from our website or by contacting:
