Summary
The Company
We're a housing association that provides more than 60,000 people in Sunderland with a place they can call home. We're a values-driven organisation, with a clear vision, a social purpose and a commitment to investing in people, place and property. We believe everyone has the right to live in a good quality home they can afford and invest millions of pounds every year in keeping our existing homes safe, secure, and compliant.
We're also playing our part in addressing the UK housing crisis locally, by building hundreds of new, modern and contemporary homes for rent in Sunderland - homes that meet the needs of local people. Not only do we provide vital housing - we support our tenants, residents and communities by investing in services that help people live their best possible life.
This includes helping people to work, victims of domestic abuse and anti-social behaviour, young people to live independently, as well as a wellbeing service that supports our elderly tenants and residents.
About the role:
We have an exciting opportunity for an IT and Digital Skills Learning Lead to join us on a permanent basis. Through the development of a Digital Learning Academy, the role will be instrumental in driving up standards of digital competency within the organisation, enabling colleagues to utilise IT systems and equipment to their full potential to improve both colleague and customer experience.
The role will design, deliver and evaluate learning programmes to support new system implementations, enhancements to existing systems and to cover the full scope of core systems used by colleagues.
The role is offered on hybrid working basis with the ability for a proportion of home working. Due to the nature of this role however we are looking for candidates who are able to commute to our premises in Sunderland on a daily basis when required.
The role is subject to a basic DBS paid for by Gentoo.
