Your Organisational Skills. Our Teams. Residents' Experience.
Effective coordination is essential to delivering quality homes and services for our residents. As part of our Property Operations Department (POD), you'll be a vital administrative link between Curo and our specialist contractors, ensuring excellence in service delivery across our property portfolio.
We are recruiting for organised individuals with excellent administrative skills to join us as Contracts Administrators within our Asset & Estates team and our Complex Works team.
The POD is the operational hub that supports various Property Services teams across Curo. While each team has its specific focus, both roles share core responsibilities around contract administration, coordination, and communication. These aren't technical roles—they're about excellent administration, relationship management, and organisational skills.
Imagine applying your organisational talents to manage essential documentation, contractor relationships, and internal processes while making a genuine difference to residents' safety and wellbeing.
What you'll be doing
You'll be the main point of contact for contractors in your assigned team
You'll book and confirm appointments with customers using their preferred communication method
You'll maintain records of regulatory certificates and contract documentation, ensuring compliance
You'll manage contract meetings, preparing agendas, capturing minutes, and tracking actions
You'll monitor contractor KPIs and quality measures, promptly identifying and addressing issues
You'll manage supplier invoices, spotting discrepancies and ensuring value for money
You'll support internal teams with co-ordination of projects
You'll help resolve customer concerns when contractors are working in their homes
About the teams
Asset & Estates team: Looks after the shared spaces and buildings that our residents call home. In this role, you'll help administer the contracts for services that maintain communal areas like hallways, stairwells, and outdoor spaces, ensuring these areas remain safe, clean, and welcoming for everyone.
Complex Works team: Coordinates larger repair and improvement projects in our properties. In this role, you'll help administer the contracts for more substantial work—like bathroom renovations, kitchen upgrades, or structural repairs—ensuring projects are properly documented, scheduled, and completed to high standards.
What you'll get in return
Beyond a salary of £24,431 and the chance to make a real difference every day, you'll get:
A salary increase to £27,431 on successful completion of key milestones during and on completion of your probationary period
26 days annual leave per year (plus bank holidays) rising to 29 days after 3 years
Your birthday off as an extra holiday
Up to 10% matched pension contribution
Hybrid working (3 days office, 2 days home)
Flexible benefits which might include a Health Cash Plan
Access to an Employee Assistance Programme for your own wellbeing
More about you
You're organised and detail-oriented with excellent communication skills and a commitment to quality and service.
You handle multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy — perfect for this busy role where attention to detail is crucial. You take pride in keeping accurate records and building positive relationships with contractors and colleagues.
You're proficient with Excel and can navigate multiple platforms with speed and accuracy. While specific systems training will be provided, your comfort with technology and ability to switch between platforms efficiently is essential.
