Supported Housing Manager

Salary: £38,000 - £40,000
Hours: Full time, permanent
Reports to: Head of Homes
Desirable: Professional qualification in housing (e.g. CIH) or working towards.
Havencare is on a clear journey: strengthening and growing our supported housing offer so more people with learning disabilities and autism can live well, safely, with dignity and choice.
We are now looking for a Supported Housing Manager to play a key operational role in that journey.
This is a hands-on, specialist role for an experienced housing professional who understands supported housing and wants to help shape a growing housing function from the inside—by making sure the day-to-day is robust, compliant, and person-centred as the organisation develops.
About the role
As Housing Manager, you will lead the day-to-day delivery of Havencare’s supported housing services, providing operational oversight across housing management, maintenance, budgets and customer service. You will manage a small housing team and work closely with the Head of Homes to ensure the organisation is operationally ready as its housing offer evolves.
This role is central to:
Supporting the development and strengthening of Havencare’s housing services
Embedding good operational practice as the organisation grows
Ensuring homes are safe, compliant, well maintained and fit for purpose
Preparing the organisation for supported housing regulatory oversight
You will work closely with colleagues across housing, support and corporate services, and engage regularly with tenants, families, commissioners, and professional partners.
What you’ll bring
You will be a confident, grounded housing professional with:
Strong experience in housing management, ideally within supported or specialist housing
A practical understanding of housing legislation, compliance and health and safety
Experience overseeing maintenance services and managing operational budgets
Confidence line managing staff and supporting teams through change
A calm, person-centred approach when working with tenants with complex needs, their families and professionals
The ability to translate strategic direction into clear, effective operational delivery
Most importantly, you will be motivated by the opportunity to help build something stronger—bringing order, assurance and quality to a housing service that is growing with purpose.
Why join Havencare?
You’ll work directly with a Director who values operational expertise and clarity
You’ll have real influence during a period of development and growth
You’ll help shape a supported housing offer that genuinely improves people’s lives
You’ll be part of an organisation driven by values, not just targets
Essential
A Satisfactory Enhanced DBS check and subsequent registration for the DBS Update Service
2 acceptable / satisfactory references
