Job Description

Are you a housing professional specialising in S202 Reviews, looking for flexible, out-of-hours work you can fit around your current role?

A local authority is looking for an experienced Housing Reviews Officer to provide additional support on a part-time basis. At the moment, all S202 Reviews are being handled by senior management, so they're looking for an extra pair of hands to help ease the pressure.

This is a flexible, out-of-hours role where you'll be paid per completed review, with an expectation of around 2 decisions per week depending on availability.

You'll be responsible for carrying out statutory reviews under Section 202 of the Housing Act 1996, producing clear, legally robust decision letters within agreed timescales. The focus is very much on quality over volume, giving you the flexibility to manage the work alongside other commitments.

To be considered, you must have previous experience handling S202 Reviews within a local authority, along with a strong understanding of housing legislation and relevant case law. You'll need to be comfortable working independently and picking up cases with minimal oversight. Experience of defending decisions or court work would be beneficial.
