Contract: Temporary (Contract Services)

We are looking for a motivated and organised individual with a keen eye for detail, a flexible approach, and a genuine commitment to delivering outstanding customer service.
In this role, you will play an important part in supporting our Property Care Team by helping to manage responsive repair services across our homes. Your work will contribute directly to ensuring our residents live in safe, well‑maintained properties.
We welcome applicants from a variety of backgrounds. While experience in a similar role, construction, or data analysis would be beneficial, we are equally interested in people with strong administrative skills who are eager to learn and develop.
You may bring experience in areas such as:
- Working with information systems and databases (knowledge of NEC and Keystone is an advantage but not essential)
- Using Microsoft Access and Excel effectively
- Maintaining high levels of accuracy and attention to detail
- Managing competing priorities and meeting deadlines
- Communicating clearly and confidently, both in writing and verbally
Experience within a local authority or social housing environment is helpful but not required – we value transferable skills and a willingness to grow.
We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. If you’re excited about the role but don’t meet every requirement, we’d still love to hear from you.
For an informal discussion, please contact Joanne White, Asset Information and Support Officer by email: joanne.white@stroud.gov.uk.
A local government reorganisation is planned for Gloucestershire, which may result in changes to structures and services. Potential changes are provisionally timetabled for April 2028. We are committed to supporting all employees through this transition and ensuring continuity of employment wherever possible. Joining us now means you’ll be part of shaping an exciting new chapter for local government.
It is important that our staff reflect the diversity of our community, and we therefore welcome and encourage applications from people of all genders and sexual orientation, those from Black, Asian and other minority ethnic backgrounds, and people with disabilities.
We welcome applications from neurodivergent candidates and value the diverse lived experiences they bring.
We recognise the wide range of cognitive strengths that contribute to delivering high-quality services.
We are committed to ensuring that every applicant can participate fully and fairly in our recruitment process. To support this, we offer workplace adjustments at every stage. Please let us know if you have any additional requirements as we are here to help create a positive, inclusive, and equitable experience for all.
Responsible recruitment practices for safeguarding are in place within the Council’s HR policies and processes. This is part of our commitment as a Council to safeguard the welfare of vulnerable adults, young people, and children.
