About Harbour Lettings:
Harbour Lettings was created in 2010 to address Edinburgh’s affordable housing shortage.
As a wholly owned subsidiary of Harbour Homes, we have greater flexibility in funding, leasing and development than Harbour Homes’ charitable status would otherwise allow.
This means we can build more homes faster so that people can live in high-quality, affordable homes in areas they want to live. With over 500 properties for mid-market rent, plus a number of properties managed for private clients, we have strong industry knowledge of both the housing and private rental sectors.

You will be responsible for front-line enquiry handling and various tenancy-related administration duties. Working closely with our Private Rentals Officers and Lettings Manager, our aim is to provide an outstanding level of service to our customers, making a difference in the sector and becoming an industry leader.
We are looking for someone who has experience in a similar role, of working with tenants and landlords, handling a busy workload, meeting deadlines and supporting colleagues in their work.

- Have at least 2 years’ experience of working in a lettings role ideally in the private sector, or a similar role in a fast-paced and target-driven environment.
- Have experience of using a computer based integrated customer management system
- Be educated to SCQF Level 6 in Residential Lettings & Property Management / CIH Level 3 Certificate in Letting and Managing Residential Property or at the very least, be willing to undertake necessary study & examinations in the above
