We adopt an 'anonymous recruitment' approach to shortlisting. Recruiting managers will not have access to personal information, including your name and contact details, until a shortlisting decision has been made.


We are committed to recruiting, retaining, and developing a workforce that reflects the communities we serve. Sharing your equality monitoring data allows us to assess the impact our recruitment and employment policies and practices have and gives us the opportunity to improve them where possible. Equality monitoring information is not accessible by recruiting managers at any stage.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to be part of a dynamic team working in a service that is developing and evolving.


The Housing Support Gateway provides one single route into housing support services and a streamlined approach to allocating referrals and ensuring the right support at the right time.

The role will include working closely with support providers within different sectors who are commissioned by the Council to provide housing support both internal and external.
