Housing Officer (Frontline Services)

Your role within Housing and Homelessness Services will support the department to deliver housing and homelessness services through Housing Service Centres. The work you will do helps someone every day, and that means the world to us.

You will provide a broad range of applicant, tenancy and property management services and advice to customers, advocates and other stakeholders. You will provide a high quality, person-centred social housing and housing assistance service to diverse customers experiencing complex and challenging housing, and whole of life issues in person over the front counter, digitally, by telephone, correspondence, in the field and through outreach services in the community.

Field work is a regular requirement of this role. Conditions in the field are changeable and can be volatile, requiring varying degrees of vigilance and management of risk.

Staff who work at a Housing Service Centre deliver frontline services to Queenslanders in housing need.

Through Housing Service Centres across Queensland, HSC staff are our main contact points with customers. They connect them to information, options and support services to meet their housing needs.

HSC staff work with customers to develop a plan that empowers them to improve their whole-of-life wellbeing and achieve safe, secure, and sustainable housing. Our work aims to reduce the barriers many Queenslanders face to accessing safe, secure and affordable housing and helps create  pathways for them to achieve housing independence.
