Rochdale £37,326 Permanent, 36.25 hours per week

At Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH) our customers are at the heart of everything we do. Making sure the people who live in our homes have a voice and that they are listened to and their views are acted on are priorities for us. That’s why we are looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Engagement Business Partner who is great at building relationships, to work with customers, colleagues and communities across the Borough. You will identify and create innovative and new engagement opportunities, helping to strengthen customer influence and driving real and meaningful improvements across RBH.

About the Role

The Customer Engagement Business Partner plays a key part in our Customer Experience team and reports to the Community Engagement and Investment Manager.

From organising and facilitating engagement events and focus groups, to creating digital content and sharing outcomes, you'll help ensure customer feedback drives continuous improvement.
