Blaby District Council

Apply now

Blaby District Council Offices (Hybrid)

Permanent, Part time

Enhanced DBS check required

Scale 5 £30,825 - £36,648 per annum pay award pending

22.4 hours


Technical Officer - Lightbulb Team

 

Scale 5 £30,825-36,648 per annum pro rata

 

Part time, permanent, 22.4 hours per week

 

Based at Blaby District Council, however, flexibility may be required to work from other County locations.

 

Lightbulb is a partnership of the seven District Councils in Leicestershire and the County Council, bringing together a range of practical housing support into a single team.  We aim to maximise the contribution that housing support can play in keeping vulnerable people independent in their homes.

 

An exciting vacancy has arisen to join our dynamic team of Technical Officers, to use your skills and knowledge to design and deliver appropriate schemes of adaptations to domestic properties, to support vulnerable clients to stay safe, secure, warm and independent in their own homes.

 

You will have the opportunity to work independently in a customer focused environment and will work closely with colleagues and partners including Occupational Therapists, Housing Support Coordinators, Administration, landlords, health and social care organisations, builders and architects to ensure the timely delivery of our services.

 

Experience in a construction related field or housing repair/adaptation would be useful, as is the ability to produce schedules of works and provide technical drawings. You will have experience of working with vulnerable people with sensitive issues, and have the ability to identify and resolve problems in a timely manner, with a ‘can do’ attitude. This role will require you to manage and deliver a varied and complex caseload with minimum supervision and therefore, awareness of current planning and building regulation issues and relevant health and Safety legislation would be advantageous. 

 

 

This role will require an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check (known as a DBS check). All offers of employment will be made conditional upon receipt of the satisfactory DBS check.
