SOVEREIGN Housing Association is doing its best to support its residents.
It is well aware that welfare cuts to benefits will make things difficult.
So it is raising its rents and hiring more staff.
It is looking for Community Investment Coordinators, Financial Inclusion Coordinators and Enterprise Coordinators, with “proven ability in delivering a service which demonstrates a measurable return on investment...”.
Each coordinator will earn £31,200 with car allowance and benefits. This is disgusting and a slap in the face to its residents who will be struggling to cope.
If it really cared about what the welfare cuts would do to its residents, it should have at the very least, not raised the rents.
