Research undertaken by CAS shows that many private renters face significant challenges in respect of housing costs, security of tenure, repairs and rights awareness. As a result, Southwark Council is funding CAS to run a dedicated private renters’ support organisation to help support and promote the interests of private renters in the borough, and to undertake a range of activities to support and empower private tenants, particularly the most disadvantaged. To deliver the project we are looking for an experienced Project Coordinator to provide overall coordination of the project and to lead on developing a proposal and business case for a permanent independent Renters’ Support Organisation in Southwark.

You must have:

  • Experience of coordinating and delivering a partnership project including monitoring progress against objectives
  • Experience of establishing and developing successful partnerships with other agencies and joint working
  • An understanding of the challenges facing private renters and the private rented sector, and the rights available to them
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to write effective reports and present information at meetings
  • Ability to work closely with and develop relationships with a wide range of stakeholders across organisations and sectors
  • Ability to commit to and work within the aims and principles of Citizens Advice Southwark
