An exciting opportunity has arisen to work in the Homelessness Prevention – PRS Sustainment Team supporting residents of Oxford to sustain their tenancies.
The PRS Sustainment team are part of the Homelessness Prevention Team in the Housing Needs Department at Oxford City Council. They are responsible alongside the other homelessness prevention teams for duties placed on local authorities to prevent homelessness in accordance with Housing Act 1996 Part 7 (as amended). The team works with certain clients to ensure that the client receives support to prevent homelessness.
They work with clients housed in our PRS access schemes to help sustain their tenancy, assess needs due to issues with the affordability of a tenancy and other general sustainment queries.
The team prides itself on its culture; where both management and colleagues are supportive, personal development is valued, and staff are empowered to challenge the status quo.
