Location Manager

12 Month Fixed Term Contract - 25 hours per week

At Bierce Court, there are  49 purpose-built properties which consist of 2 and 3 bedroom apartments and 11 cottages. The development is situated in Birchington close to Margate and has excellent transport links to Canterbury, Dover and London. 

The role of a Location Manager is an exciting and dynamic one, with no day the same as the last. You’ll be responsible for delivering excellent customer service which meets and exceeds expectations, supports the needs of the individual and promotes happy living. You’ll have great people skills, a ‘can do’ attitude and empathy.  As well as being a people person, you’ll also be business minded and always be on the lookout for opportunities to improve and enhance Anchor’s services for our customers.

You will get the best of both worlds with opportunities to work as part of a team and on using your own initiative. Knowledge or previous experience of working with older people, managing budgets, complaint handling and safeguarding of vulnerable adults is preferred, but not essential for this role. A level 3 certificate or diploma in housing is desirable.

Our housing leasehold and rented schemes are about providing older people with independence and security within a happy community. Residents look to us to provide them with a safe, well-maintained home and take the stress out of everyday life. 

Anchor – a great place to work
