Housing Disrepair Canvassing Manager

Nationwide travel you ll spend most of your time on the road

Salary: GBP45,000 - GBP50,000 per annum + performance bonus & mileage

About the role

HDS is a fast growing Property disrepair company that helps tenants hold councils and housing associations to account when properties are left in damp, mould or general disrepair. Despite being a new company we already have a motivated canvassing force generating high quality leads for our panel solicitors. Now we re looking for an experienced, energetic manager to take that team and our impact to the next level.

What you ll be doing

• Lead & inspire a team of door to door canvassers, setting targets, coaching in field and maintaining high morale.
• Plan nationwide campaigns: map hotspots, optimise routes, arrange travel and accommodation, and ensure full compliance with local regulations.
• Quality control every lead: spot check conversations, audit paperwork, and liaise with solicitors to fine tune our qualifying criteria.
• Recruit & train: hire new canvassers, run induction bootcamps, and deliver regular upskilling sessions on tenant rights, disrepair law and sales techniques.
• Analyse performance data: track KPIs (conversion rates, claims value, territory ROI) and present weekly reports to senior leadership.
• Represent the brand on the ground: be the escalation point for tenant queries, council interactions and any complex situations encountered at the doorstep.

The ideal candidate

• Proven field team management experience (door to door, fundraising, utilities, telecoms, housing advocacy or similar).
• Confident coach who can balance empathy with firm target driven leadership.
• Working knowledge of housing disrepair legislation (or the desire and ability to master it quickly).
• Full UK driving licence, willingness to travel nationwide and stay away from home several nights a week.
• Data literate: comfortable using CRM/lead tracking tools and Excel/Sheets to monitor performance.

What we offer

• GBP45,000 - GBP50,000 base salary with uncapped quarterly bonus linked to team conversions.
• Company funded vehicle or generous mileage allowance, plus all travel & accommodation covered.
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays (rising with service).
• Pension scheme, laptop, mobile, and full toolkit for in field coaching.
• Ongoing legal training from our partner solicitors and clear progression to Regional or National Operations Manager.
• The chance to make a tangible social impact: every successful claim forces real repairs and improves tenants living conditions.
