Job Title
Communications Officer
Organisation
Leeds Federated Housing Association
Job Description
About us
Leeds Federated is a housing association with around 4,500 properties across Leeds, Wakefield and North Yorkshire. Our mission is to enable the maximum number of people to access and live sustainably in good value, affordable housing.

The vacancy
We’re looking for a Communications Officer with a creative flair and can-do attitude to join our team. You’ll have the opportunity to build relationships and work with colleagues from across the organisation, supporting various communications projects for our customer, colleague and stakeholder audiences.

We’re excited to be developing a storytelling culture across the organisation and your role will support this work. Your role will also have a strong focus on strengthening our brand identity and tone of voice.



The role is varied with no two days the same, so you’ll need good organisational skills to manage your own work and priorities. Though we’re a small team, you’ll work closely with the Brand and Communications Manager, providing a seamless service to colleagues.

Some of your key areas of work will be around:

  • Maintaining our social media channels and developing engaging content

  • Updating our website

  • Creating our bimonthly electronic customer newsletter

  • Developing marketing materials – both inhouse and liaising with external designers and creatives

  • Producing stories and creative content


Ideally, you’ll have practical knowledge of maintaining social media channels, websites and newsletters, as well as an ability to use basic design software.

While you do need communications experience for this role, you don’t need to have a background in the housing sector – just plenty of enthusiasm and a willingness to learn!

The benefits
As well as a competitive salary we can offer you:

  • Agile working environment

  • 30 days annual leave

  • DC pension schemes

  • Cycle to Work Scheme

  • Health cash plan


The closing date for this role is: 16th September at noon

Interviews will take place on: 25th September in Leeds
