CITY OF LONDON PROPERTY SERVICES HOUSING REVENUE ACCOUNT (HRA)
Project Support Officer (Major Works Team, HRA)
The City of London’s Housing Service manages 12 estates, totalling 5500 homes. Three of these estates are in the Square Mile (including the iconic Barbican Estate) and a further 9 estates are in neighbouring London boroughs.
Our tenants and leaseholders are at the heart of everything we do, supporting us as we strive to effectively manage, maintain, and improve the property that is their home.
The Major Works Team (HRA) is primarily responsible for the delivery of an ambitious capital programme of planned maintenance refurbishment to the Corporation’s social housing stock over the next 10 years. Works will include roof and window replacement, communal decorations, mechanical and electrical upgrades, fire safety, internal decent homes, and potentially some decarbonisation elements.
We are looking for a self-motivated and enthusiastic Project Support Officer, keen to work as part of a structured team and with a real passion for developing themselves within the field of construction project management at grass roots level.
The successful candidate will have excellent workload management skills and will be a strong team player. Experience of working in refurbishment would be of benefit, either client-side or for a contractor. There will be an opportunity for professional development in respect of obtaining Level 3 construction-related qualifications, which will be fully supported by the City of London Corporation.
Being customer focused and having the right attitude, drive and enthusiasm are also key ingredients for this role.
This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act and as part of the selection process the successful applicant will be required to obtain a Standard Disclosure & Barring Service check.
The City of London Corporation is currently undergoing a programme to ensure that our pay and reward practices are competitive and equitable across the whole organisation, to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to thrive in the work that we do.
In addition to a competitive salary and membership of the excellent Local Government Pension Scheme, you can look forward to an all-round package of life-improving benefits and offers – from interest-free season ticket and bicycle loans to discounts on health and wellbeing, arts and culture.
Closing date: 12 noon on 19 February 2026.
Interviews will be held on 12 and 13 March 2026.
