About Midland Heart

We're a housing association, here to provide safe, affordable homes and to build stronger communities across the Midlands. And we're offering students the chance to intern in our Tenancy Services Team — where you'll gain hands-on experience of how housing management works in practice, from supporting tenants to tackling anti-social behaviour, safeguarding and tenancy sustainment.

Your Role:

You'll apply your academic knowledge to real-world challenges – working alongside experienced Tenancy Services and Housing Management professionals, whilst gaining insight into how a career in the housing sector makes a direct difference to people's lives and communities. You'll gain exposure to areas such as anti-social behaviour casework, safeguarding, tenancy sustainment and housing law.

Your day to day will see you:

* Supporting tenancy services officers with case management and administrative tasks.

* Helping process tenancy change requests (e.g. mutual exchanges, assignments, successions).

* Assisting in monitoring and reviewing ASB or noise nuisance cases, including liaising with tenants.

* Accompanying officers on tenancy visits and inspections.

* Providing general support to the team with reports, records, and rota management.

* Taking part in project work, mentoring, and development activities as part of your internship.

What we're looking for:

* Currently studying (or recently completed) a degree in Housing, Criminology, Social Policy, Law, Sociology, or a related discipline.

* Strong communication and organisational skills.

* A genuine interest in housing and delivering positive outcomes for tenants.

* Ability to handle sensitive issues with empathy and professionalism.

* Enthusiasm, openness to feedback, and a genuine desire to learn.
