Your Role

Do you have a passion for customer service and would like to use your trade/building/construction industry knowledge to help make a positive difference in our social housing maintenance operations?

Homes NSW is an Agency of the Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ). Our vision is for NSW to be a place where everyone has access to safe and secure housing, and where experiences of homelessness are rare, brief, and non-recurring.

We lead work to deliver more quality social housing to our 262,000 tenants across NSW, empowering our tenants to live fulfilling lives and achieve their potential in inclusive communities with a focus on breaking, rather than managing disadvantage.

We strive for excellence in service delivery and most importantly, Homes NSW puts people at the heart – including our staff. Working for us means you are joining a team where your expertise and skills will be valued.

The Maintenance Hub Response Centre operates 24/7 365 days a year, and employs around 150 staff to provide responsive maintenance solutions to social housing properties in NSW, utilising various channels such as telephone, email, and online platforms to cater to our clients’ needs effectively.

Your new role offers a generous salary package and internal career progression, as well as flexible work arrangements, including the ability to work remotely from home.

Regional NSW candidates are encouraged to apply.

What you’ll do

Your new role will give you the flexibility to be working from your home office or one of our many office locations around NSW and our headquarters in Liverpool or Parramatta for required shifts across a 24/7 roster.

Your passion for making a difference will be rewarded, knowing you are solving problems for those in need by putting your experience or knowledge of the building and construction industry to work by triaging and identifying the most appropriate maintenance solutions to our social housing tenants.

You will do this by:

• Responding to our social housing tenants by phone, online applications or email, with understanding and empathy to provide accurate and appropriate maintenance advice, that not only meets the asset requirements, but meets the needs of our tenants which can be complex at times.
• Keeping track of multiple maintenance requests and activities, ensuring they are progressed and managed end-to-end to deliver optimum service outcomes.

What we’re looking for

The successful applicant will have:

• Strong client focus with a commitment to quality customer service
• Excellent computer navigation skills with the ability to work between multiple screens and applications
• Dedication to continuous learning through both in-person and virtual training
• A fully functional, private, and secure work from home office
• Commitment to attend scheduled team meetings at our Liverpool office
• Ability to work across a 24/7 rotating roster
• A good understanding of building maintenance is highly desirable, but not essential
• Call centre experience is also desirable, but not essential
• Strong work ethic and capability to triage maintenance problems and apply appropriate first-time solutions

Appointments are subject to:

• Reference checks
• A National Criminal History Check in accordance with the Disability Inclusion Act 2024.
