housing team structure
In 2022 as part of a review of staffing arrangements across the City of London Corporation, the Housing team made some changes to local estate teams and some of its ‘back office’ services.
We are phasing out certain job roles and introducing some new ones, but overall staffing levels on your estate are not changing.
The current Estate Manager and Estate Officer posts, which deal with both housing and estate matters, are being phased out. We are bringing in new specialist job roles which will have clearer responsibilities. These new posts will continue to be based locally on your estates.
The changes are intended to make it clearer who is responsible for what, and to improve customer service and estate standards on City of London estates.
