About Dot Dot Dot

Improving lives in a housing crisis

We are on a mission to get people housed by turning empty buildings into homes. The property owner gets security, the residents get inexpensive housing, and the community benefits from dedicated volunteers. It’s a positive cycle that helps communities flourish. 

We are looking for someone who shares our excitement about the work we do to join us as a property and guardian assistant.

You will join our field team, supporting our core team with a range of on-site tasks at properties around London and the South-east. You might be evaluating new properties, organising access for contractors, or inspecting occupied properties to ensure that everything is in order.

As well as the opportunity to make a tangible difference, in this role you will benefit from a friendly company environment, a competitive salary and terms of employment which aim to support a good work-life balance. Read on to find out more.

About You

You’re likely to be able to demonstrate experience of, or aptitude for much of the following:

  • Interest in our mission and values as an organisation, as well as the housing sector as a whole.

  • Resourceful and proactive approach - Property and Guardian Assistants experience new places, people and problems every day and the ability to find practical solutions or seek out advice is critical.

  • Responsibility and trustworthiness - able to take responsibility for the safety and security of people and buildings and to give confidence to guardians and to clients.

  • Organisation and good attention to detail - someone who prepares in advance, prioritises work and schedules effectively,  and ensures that every detail is properly addressed and recorded.

  • Confidence in and enthusiasm for meeting people, with good interpersonal skills and a friendly, professional manner.

  • IT literacy - able to use or willingness to learn to use Google, Salesforce, Slack and other platforms.

  • Basic property maintenance/DIY skills, or the willingness to learn. For example, how to change lightbulbs, test fire alarms, bleed radiators, locate and turn off a stopcock, and cap off plumbing. Training will be provided for all tasks required of the role.
