Role

Ardenglen Housing Association is a highly successful, award winning organisation. We are extremely proud of our proven track record and achievements over the past 30 years with customer services, innovation and kindness at our core.

We are looking for a motivated, dynamic and resilient individual to join our Operations Team as Energy Advisor. This post will provide a professional and excellent standard of service, achieving customer satisfaction objectives, which aim to support and ensure that households who are most vulnerable to fuel poverty or living in fuel fear receive direct one-to-one support and advice, necessary to implement long-term behavioral changes. You will be expected to deliver excellent performance across all areas of the project as well as ensuring that high quality of customer service is in line with our vision and values.

You will be dynamic and engaging with excellent communication, management, leadership and coaching skills and will play a central role in the development of this new and exciting project. You will work closely with the community of Castlemilk as well as wider networks and key partners to ensure they influence and shape the project. You will also link in with other Energy Advice projects across Glasgow in supporting the development of a learning and skills resources sharing network.

Ardenglen is a community based housing association, established in 1990. We operate from a modern office in Castlemilk, Glasgow, own, and manage 1,000 homes for rent. We pride ourselves on being recognised as a community anchor and are committed to the ongoing physical, social and economic regeneration of the area.

Following the launch and success of the Castlemilk Food Pantry and its’ associated Pantry Plus initiative (added-value activities), we are delighted with an award of funding from the Energy Re-dress Scheme, that will see us develop The Castlemilk Pantry Energy Advice Project. This new service will form part of Pantry Plus and will aim to expand local provision across Castlemilk, through employing an Energy Advisor to provide support and energy advice to members of the Pantry.

The Castlemilk Pantry project provides a dignified approach towards addressing poverty across our community of Castlemilk which has a population of circa 14,000; with 11,477(81%) residing in the 15% most deprived data zones and 7,886(56%) within the 5% most deprived data zones (SIMD20).
